Quantity

The Elves Vanyar is a lightweight carbon road frameset for riders who still prefer a clean, fast rim brake setup.

Built with Toray T800 and T1000 carbon fibre, the Vanyar is designed as a light, responsive road frame with pro-level geometry, integrated cable routing and a classic rim brake feel.

If you want to build a lightweight climbing bike, refresh an older rim brake setup, or keep using a favourite rim brake wheelset, the Vanyar gives you a modern carbon frameset without forcing you into disc brakes.

Want this frameset built into a complete bike?

We can build this frameset into a full custom bike with wheels, handlebars, drivetrain, tyres and finishing kit selected to suit how you ride.

Frames are painted from raw, so custom builds usually take around 5–8 weeks, depending on paint timing and parts availability.

Get in touch before ordering and we can talk through the best build options.

Why choose the Elves Vanyar rim brake frameset?

Rim brake bikes still make a lot of sense for riders who want a lighter, simpler road bike and already have good rim brake components or wheels.

Choose the Elves Vanyar if you want a lightweight rim brake road bike that feels quick, direct and easy to live with.

Vanyar Size Guide

Use the chart below as a general guide based on rider height. If you’re between sizes or unsure, get in touch before ordering.

Frame size	Your height
S-46	158–165cm
M-48	163–172cm
L-50	170–177cm
XL-52	175–182cm
2XL-54	180–185cm
3XL-56	182–190cm

This size guide is based on rider height. Rider proportions, flexibility and preferred riding position can affect final frame choice.

If you’re in-between sizes, the smaller frame will usually suit riders with shorter reach or a lower, racier position. The larger frame may suit riders with longer reach or a more relaxed position.
