Carbon bike

A carbon bike is a bike where the frame and possibly other components are made from carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is an extremely lightweight yet strong material that is created by processing carbon fiber.

The frame of a carbon bike is made by arranging and weaving these carbon fibers in a specific pattern and using resins or adhesives to achieve high strength and rigidity. Carbon frames offer excellent rigidity while remaining lightweight, which helps make carbon bikes often very capable and responsive.

The use of carbon as a construction material allows manufacturers to develop bicycle frames with different properties, such as frames with high stiffness for racing bikes , aerodynamic shapes for time trial bikes or even frames with certain flex properties for comfort on long-distance rides.

Carbon bikes are often popular with professional cyclists and enthusiasts because they can offer a good balance between weight, stiffness and comfort. However, they are usually more expensive than bikes with frames made from other materials such as aluminum or steel.

    E-bike against muscle atrophy: How cycling in old age helps prevent sarcopenia

    Sarcopenia – this medical term refers to a very real problem: the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength. Starting around the age of 50, the body loses up to 1–2% of its muscle mass annually. The consequences: weakness, unsteadiness when walking, and the risk of falls. But this doesn't have to be the case. Exercise is the best remedy for muscle atrophy – and this is precisely where the e-bike comes in. It enables regular, joint-friendly muscle training even in old age – without overexertion.
