This varies quite a bit by brand, frame material, and build - check the specific model's listing for its rated capacity.
Why do road bikes cost more than hybrids or MTBs?
The lightweight, aerodynamic frames and precision components needed for speed and efficiency add to the cost, though budget-friendly road bikes exist too.
