2. Bicycle frame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_frame

   Giant Cadex bicycle with carbon/aluminum/steel frame. Combining different materials can provide the desired stiffness, compliance, or damping in different areas better than can be accomplished with a single material. The combined materials are usually carbon fiber and a metal, either steel, aluminum, or titanium.

   In 1982, Cobas developed a stronger and lighter aluminum twin-beam chassis to replace the steel backbone frames. [7] The technology was copied by major motorcycle manufacturers and by the 1990s, all the major racing teams in Grand Prix competition used the aluminum frame design pioneered by Cobas. [8] Examples. 1885 Daimler Reitwagen; Honda ...

5. Lugged steel frame construction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lugged_steel_frame...

   For most of the bicycle's history, steel has been the primary material for bicycle frames, with lugged construction the primary assembling method. Steel continues in use by builders of high-quality steel frames, though its dominance as a frame material has waned since the mid-1990s displaced largely by aluminum and carbon fiber; lugging has ...

7. 7005 aluminium alloy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7005_aluminium_alloy

   7005 is an aluminium wrought alloy [1] used in bicycle frames. Due to its relative ease of welding, it does not require expensive heat treating. It is, however, harder to form, making manufacture more challenging. [2] It has an Ultimate Tensile Strength of 350 MPa, a Fatigue Strength of 150 MPa and a density of 2.78 g/cm 3. [3]
