Bike Frame

A bike frame is frequently the costliest part of the bike. The frame determines the aerodynamics and weight of the bicycle. It is the central part of a bike to which all other parts attach.

A bike frame alone cannot be ridden without accessories and components. It does not come with a seat, pedals, wheels, etc. All of these components must be attached.

When a cyclist purchases a bike usually the components come with the bike frame. However, the components need to be adjusted. A salesman can help a cyclist picked the right sized frame and then adjust the seat and other components to fit.
