The invention relates to a bicycle frame (1) with a remote-controlled shock absorber (2) connected to the frame (1). The shock absorber (2) comprises two dials (3, 4) for adjusting the compression and rebound. The frame (1) is characterised in that it comprises a depression (9; 25) communicated with the outside of the frame (1) and provided with a window (12; 28) that communicates the depression (9; 25) with an inner part (8b; 18b) of the frame (1). An actuator element (7) for adjusting the compression dial (3) extends from the outside of the frame (1) towards the window (12; 28) passing through the inner part (8b; 18b) of the frame (1). The invention improves the integration of the rear suspension of the bicycle while simultaneously allows for easy adjustment of the compression dial (3) and the rebound dial (4).
Frame (1) for a bicycle, comprising a top tube (8), a down tube (18) and a remote-controlled rear shock absorber (2), being the shock absorber (2) connected to the frame (1) by means of two anchoring elements (2a, 2b) traversed by a longitudinal axis (5) of the shock absorber (2) and comprising the shock absorber (2) at least one compression dial (3) and a rebound dial (4), wherein the frame (1) is characterized in that:
