What are the features of a road bike?

A road bike is the best option for fast rides on asphalt. Thoroughbred racing bikes with carbon or aluminium frames are lighter, faster and more aerodynamic than other bike types. Here’s an overview of a road bike’s typical features:

• Frame made of ultra-light, comfortable carbon or durable, high-quality aluminium
• Performance-oriented geometry for both smooth straight-line stability and winding descents
• Lightweight components from your preferred manufacturer
• Electronic and mechanical gears for precise and smooth gear changes
• Aerodynamic deep-section rims
• Stable, stiff and lightweight wheels
• All-weather disc brakes or maintenance-friendly rim brakes
• Drop handlebars for a variety of riding and hand positions
• Optimum combination of two chainrings at the front and up to twelve sprockets at the rear for a gear range that is suitable for both climbing mountain passes and steady cruising on the flats.

Road bikes are ideal for riding on roads and cycle paths. At just a few kilograms in weight, you’ll soon feel the speed and lightness on mountainous and hilly routes. For rough off-road trails, pick a mountain bike. And on gravel tracks, gravel bikes offer the best combination of speed and grip.
