The gears, brakes, tires and wheels should offer a higher level of performance.
DECATHLON BIKE WORKSHOP PLUS
Spending more should get you a higher quality, and usually lighter frame plus lighter wheels and components too. How much to spend on your first road bike will obviously depend on how much you have to spend, but generally the more you spend on a bike, the better the bike you’ll get. Whatever your budget, Decathlon has a bike that will help you enjoy cycling to the fullest. This will make cycling more comfortable and ensure that you are as efficient as possible when riding. Size: Last but not least, size matters! Take the time to look at the size guides, and contact us if needed. Sportive and leisure riders, may be served best by an aluminum wheelset offering a balance of light weight, durability, while competitive riders may choose to invest in carbon fibre aero wheels which deliver stiffness, light weight and superior aerodynamics.ĥ.
700c is the recommended diameter for most road bike practices. Wheels: Road bike wheels differ in many ways (diameter and rim width, material, spoke patterns). The best ones are lighter, smoother, have more speeds (offering more pedaling frequency options) and have disc brakes (offering a sharper braking than rim brakes).Ĥ. Shimano is the most renown groupset manufacturer, offering different hierarchy of groupsets. Groupset: Here we refer to any mechanical parts that are involved in braking, changing gear, or the running of the drivetrain. So sometimes an aluminum bike with a better parts package can be more appealing because it could be lighter, potentially faster, and cheaper too.ģ. Frame material: Carbon or Aluminum? Carbon builds a lighter, stiffer and generally more comfortable frame than an aluminum one, but it commands a premium compared to aluminum. If you're looking for a more relaxed ride and greater levels of comfort for longer rides, then choose a slightly more upright riding position.Ģ. The more aerodynamic you are and the faster you’ll be able to ride. Frame geometry: If you're looking for performance above all, you'll want to be in crouched low position with the handlebars lower than the saddle. Here are the most important things to consider when you pick a road bike:ġ. We could talk about bikes for hours, but we know you might have limited time, so we'll go straight to the point.
