Bicycle frame

1. A bicycle frame configured to support a front wheel and a rear wheel defining a central plane, the bicycle frame comprising:

a head tube;

a bottom bracket configured to support a crank assembly; and

a seat stay including a leading edge and a trailing edge oriented such that a chord line between the leading edge and the trailing edge defines an angle of incidence greater than zero degrees relative to the central plane,

wherein in horizontal cross-section, the leading is located farther from the central plane than an entirety of the trailing edge.

2. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the seat stay includes an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge adjacent the central plane, and an outer surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge opposite the inner surface, and wherein the inner surface has a first camber defined by a first profile and the outer surface has a second camber defined by a second profile that is different from the first profile.

3. The bicycle frame of claim 2 , wherein a first portion of the inner surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced farther from the chord line than a second portion of the inner surface adjacent the trailing edge, and wherein a first portion of the outer surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced closer to the chord line than a second portion of the outer surface adjacent the trailing edge.

4. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the angle of incidence is between about 3 degrees and about 25 degrees.

5. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the angle of incidence is between about 5 and about 15 degrees.

6. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the angle of incidence is between about 6 degrees and about 12 degrees.

7. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the angle of incidence is about 10 degrees.

8. The bicycle frame of claim 1 , wherein the seat stay is defined by an asymmetric airfoil shape in cross-section.

9. A bicycle frame configured to support a front wheel and a rear wheel defining a central plane, the bicycle frame comprising:

a head tube;

a bottom bracket configured to support a crank assembly; and

a bicycle frame portion including a leading edge, a trailing edge, an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge adjacent the central plane, and an outer surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge opposite the inner surface, the inner surface having a first camber profile and the outer surface having a second camber profile different from the first camber profile,

wherein the bicycle frame portion is defined by an asymmetric airfoil shape in cross-section, and wherein the asymmetric airfoil shape defines a chord line extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and

wherein a first portion of the inner surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced farther from the chord line than a second portion of the inner surface adjacent the trailing edge, and wherein a first portion of the outer surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced closer to the chord line than a second portion of the outer surface adjacent the trailing edge.

10. The bicycle frame of claim 9 , wherein the chord line defines an angle of incidence greater than zero degrees relative to the central plane.

11. The bicycle frame of claim 10 , wherein the angle of incidence is about 9 degrees.

12. The bicycle frame of claim 9 , wherein the bicycle frame portion is at least one of a seat stay, a chain stay, and a fork.

13. A bicycle frame configured to support a front wheel and a rear wheel defining a central plane, the bicycle frame comprising:

a head tube;

a bottom bracket configured to support a crank assembly; and

a bicycle frame portion defined by an asymmetric airfoil shape in cross-section and including a leading edge and a trailing edge, the asymmetric airfoil shape defining a chord line and a mean camber line each extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, the mean camber line intersecting the chord line at an intersection point between the leading edge and the trailing edge,

wherein the bicycle frame portion includes an inner surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge adjacent the central plane, and an outer surface extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge opposite the inner surface, and wherein the inner surface has a first camber defined by a first profile and the outer surface has a second camber defined by a second profile that is different from the first profile, and

wherein a first portion of the inner surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced farther from the chord line than a second portion of the inner surface adjacent the trailing edge, and wherein a first portion of the outer surface adjacent the leading edge is spaced closer to the chord line than a second portion of the outer surface adjacent the trailing edge.

14. The bicycle frame of claim 13 , wherein the chord line defines an angle of incidence that is greater than zero degrees relative to the central plane.

15. The bicycle frame of claim 13 , wherein the bicycle frame portion is at least one of a seat stay, a chain stay, and a fork.
