Introduction
Cycling is undergoing a major transformation. New materials, connected technologies, new practices: here are the major trends that will shape cycling between 2025 and 2030.
Materials of the future
Next-generation carbon
Ultra-high-strength carbon fibers enable ever lighter and stiffer frames. The next generations of road bikes could weigh under 5 kg in full configuration.
Graphene
Integrated into carbon composites, graphene improves impact resistance and thermal conductivity. Already used in Vittoria tires, it will become more widespread.
Connected technology
Artificial intelligence
AI-generated training plans, adapted in real-time to your fitness level, will revolutionize the preparation of amateur cyclists.
Integrated sensors
Power, cadence, muscle temperature, and lactate sensors integrated directly into the frame or components. Data will be everywhere.
New practices
Gravel and bikepacking
The gravel trend will continue to grow. Bikepacking — traveling by bike with lightweight bags — is attracting more and more cyclists seeking adventure.
Premium urban cycling
High-end city bikes, electric cargo bikes, and premium folding bikes will expand in major cities.
Tomorrow's bike space
The integration of bikes into living spaces will continue to develop. Premium wall mounts, dedicated bike spaces, and cycling home studios will become the norm for passionate cyclists. David & Clément is ready for this future.
Conclusion
The future of cycling is exciting. And whatever tomorrow's technology may be, your bike will always need a beautiful wall mount to be displayed with the respect it deserves.
