Our A8 frameset is from the new breed of aero framesets. Road bike frames that are designed to be fast, letting you set those Strava KOMs, but also designed to be comfortable so that you actually enjoy your time out on the saddle.
We construct the A8 frameset out of high modulus Toray T700 carbon fiber. Our engineers have found the T700 fiber great for working with and perfect for laying up into aerodynamic shapes. Our tapered headtube is a case in point and is shaped perfectly to cut through the air and allow our aero fork to meld into the frame, making the frame and fork look as if they are one.
As you would expect we used our knowledge of internal cable routing to give this frameset clean ports and an easy to use internal routing system. To add to the clean and modern look, we dropped the seat stays. This also has the benefit of helping to stiffen up the back end of the bike, and for the aero advantage, it will give you.
Being as we wanted the frame to be stiff to help you set those Strava times we have fitted a BB86 bottom bracket to this frameset. BB86 allows us to build a big and stiff bottom bracket area, as we are creating a bigger area it allowed our engineers to add more aero refinements to the down tube and bottom bracket area. It also allows us to fit huge chainstays to make sure that we can send all your power to the back wheel to help propel you along the road.

What is the best tire size for my ICAN wheels?
The best tire size for your wheel, which depends on the wheelsets type, size and the conditions you plan to ride the wheel in.
If you focus on speed,aerodynamic, each carbon wheel will have a specific recomended tire width, which is listed on specific product pages under rim specs.
We find(Not necessarily 100% correct):
- With a broader external width, ICAN Cycling wheels roll most optimally with a 25mm/28mm (actual width) tire.
- For Jet wheels, we recommend 25mm (actual width) tires, but 28mm (actual width) tires are still an excellent choice.
- Unless a podium step hangs in the balance, the difference in the speed of the Jet, using a 25mm tire versus a 28mm tire, works out to only 0.05 kph. That’s approximately 3 – 4 seconds over 40km.
What is the recommended tire pressure
If you want the right tire pressure，please read the guide for recommended tire pressure.
What is the suitable spokes tension
MTB Wheels the front spoke tension :110 +-10 kilograms force
Rear wheel drive side :120 +-10 kilograms force
No drive side Rear ：60% kilograms force of drive side Rear-wheel
Road bike wheels spoke tension：
front wheel: 110+-10 kg force
Rear wheel: 120+-10 kg force
Recommended maximum spokes tension: Less than 145 kgf.
