Carbon Road Bikes
When it comes to building the best quality road bikes, carbon fibre is a dream material. It offers a winning combination of everything you could possibly need to give the optimum balance in high performance, style and comfort. When made correctly, carbon can be up to three times lighter than the next highest quality material, whilst also being more ridged and much, much stronger than any available metal. Because of this it’s widely used in motor racing and the aircraft industry. Another unique factor is the comfort it offers. Due to the way it’s constructed, carbon is fantastic at soaking up vibration making it brilliant for use on the road. This is down to good old fashion design and the damping properties in the resin used to bond the carbon layers together. Topped off with its unrivalled ability to be sculpted into any shape desired, all in all you will end up with a sleek looking, ultra comfortable, super light weight and ridiculously fast racing machine.
So what’s the catch?
Well, carbon fibre is in very high demand. Most bike manufacturers know they need to offer at least one carbon bike in their range to compete with the other brands. Often these bikes act as more of a show piece than a proper racing bike, they tend to lack drastically in good quality and design. Due to costs the carbon gets sourced from the cheapest supplier sacrificing strength and quality.
At Saddle Safari we are aware of these factors and as riders we feel it’s important to offer the best quality for your money. Because of this we have chosen to offer Trek bikes as our flagship brand. Trek use their own specially designed OCLV carbon construction process for the ultimate in quality carbon fiber frames. Over the years Trek have pretty much paved the way for the use of carbon fibre in the bicycle industry. They are also one of the very few brands to offer a LIFETIME WARRANTY on all of their carbon frames. If its good enough to carry Lance Armstrong to seven consecutive Tour de France wins then who can argue!
