The aluminium bikes available in 2024 are better than they ever have been. After some key models saw reductions in weight this year, it's meant that what used to be the downside to aluminium is no longer all that bad. We have rounded up the aluminium road bikes which we think are the best options in 2024. They span all price points, spec levels, brands and riding styles. We have bikes from Specialized, Cannondale, Trek, Canyon and Triban. Which would you pick?

A few months ago I purchased a Trek Emonda ALR frameset. Built it up with 105 Di2 group, 35mm deep carbon wheels with GP 5000 tires. This build allowed me to finish it off with bike parts that fit me, like, 165mm cranks, 40mm handlebars, carbon seatpost, and a nice saddle. So, what I ended up with is a bike that fits me well and I have full confidence in. I find it very fast on the flats, nice and snappy, climbs well, and safe on downhills. The bike feels super solid, something that a well designed alloy frame delivers. This is my second aluminum Trek. The other is a 10 year old Crossrip with AL frame (early version of Domane), set up for gravel. Ya, I'm super happy with these Trek aluminum frames!!!

I have 2 bikes. One is my favorite Cannondale CAAD 12 (Acid Red color) , 105 mechanical, RIM Brake which i have fitted with 50 mm Parcours wheel set and a Trek Aero Handlebar. It weighs 8.3 Kgs with Pedals, LIght mounts and Bottle cages. This bike cost me about $ 2000 and then i added another $2500 worth of upgrades on this. My other bike is a Canyon CFR SRAM Red eTap AXS , Ultra -Rare Toray MX 40 carbon, with 58 mm Zip NSW TL wheelset & DIsc Brake. Its a beautiful bike and weighs about 7.7 kgs with Pedals, Bottle cages and Light mounts. However Cannondale still says my hot favorite.

In regards to the CAAD, I’m actually a bit surprised that a 14 hasn’t shown up yet. I seem to remember the 12 and 13 releasing shortly after a new supersix.

I find it weird that so many people dislike the CAAD13. Reviewers say it rides great. People who own them say they are good. I think most of the people disliking it mention the... dropped seat stays. A VERY odd complaint in 2024. I had a dropped seatstay aluminum frame from BMC back in 2009 and it was awesome. I'm sure Cannondale are figuring out how to get people to like it and perhaps that will include angling the top tube more so the top tube and seatstays meet at the same place (like a TCR) and people think it doesn't have dropped stays ( LOL)

For 90% of riders the Triban would be every bit as good as the others here. I've had bikes that some were faster than others but not so I was ever ahead of the usual guys when we went out in a group. I have a Giant Defy Advanced 2 and it's great but it would be no faster than the Advanced 3 which is much much cheaper due to group set etc. If I spent £10k on a Pinarello I doubt if I'd be half a mile per hour faster over 20 miles of normal riding.

Im interested in the Trek bikes but the Emonda AL frameset is not really a good value proposition. In fact, they are punishing you for picking the frame set over a built up bike... Trek built Emonda AL5 = £1850 Emonda Frame set = £1300 A 105 groupset is £400-430, Wheels £300-800+ (based on personal budget but you wouldnt kit an Emonda up with a £300 set of Mavics...), Seat post £50-60, Handlebars £50-79, bar tape £10-15, Saddle £30-200 (based on budget) and the list goes on.... By the time you complete your build and calculate the amount of money you put into building the bike, you might as should have gone with an off the shelf AL5 then sold off the stock wheels for £100-200 and bought a better set of wheels.

Big time. Merida do an AL frame with carbon forks. Claris g/set $950 (460 quid) Merida is made in same factory in Taiwan as Specialised About time you folk start 'chasing the knowledge' - which is the opposite of smoke, mirrors & BS.
