These nine bikes are all lightweight with high-grade materials. Carbon fiber is the secret sauce in almost every bike on this list, whether it’s in the frame or the components.

This means that frames can be made to absorb vibration better than metal, improving long distance comfort while staying rocket stiff for sprinting.
