There are no significant outliers in terms of performance, but rather a consistent tradeoff between climbing and flat test results. If you’re looking at a used bike online, you might need to contact the seller to provide this information, although they usually include it in the description. Notice the almost perfect trendline traveling from the lower-right to the upper-left. Road bikes sizes are usually given in centimeters while mountain bike and hybrid sizes are usually given in inches. This way, you can avoid serious injury to your crotch area when you have to brake hard and jump off the saddle Fat Bike Size Chart. We’ve enlarged the points which perform best (you want points that are lower and leftward). For road bikes, the minimum recommended clearance is 2 inches (or 10cm), while for mountain bikes get some extra room by having at least 4-5 inches of clearance. The DT Swiss ARC 62s also display solid all-around performance, but skewed a bit more to the climbing side of things. The ENVE 7.8 wheels make a surprisingly good showing as “aero all-arounders”. The Scott Addict RC is the closest we have to a Tron-beater thanks to its amazing climbing performance while staying nicely aero. The Tron bike is a standout all-arounder thanks to its blazing fast flat test and mid-pack climb times. Not surprisingly, the most aero setup (Specialized Venge S-Works + DT Swiss disc) is also the slowest climber, and the best climber (Aethos + Roval Alpinist/Lightweights) is tied for slowest on flat ground.
