A shock absorbing frame for a bicycle includes a seat tube extending along a lengthwise axis, a front frame unit, a rear frame unit, and a shock-absorbing member. The front frame unit includes top and bottom tubes extending rearwardly to terminate at upper and bottom ends, respectively. A connecting member is disposed between the top and down tubes, and extends from one of the top and down tubes. The rear frame unit includes a rear-axle stay and a chain stay. The rear-axle stay extends forwardly to bypass the lengthwise axis, and has a first front mount end. The chain stay has a second front mount end. A bottom bracket is disposed to interconnect the bottom end and the second front mount end. The shock-absorbing member is disposed between the first front mount end and the connecting member to damp the impact force propagating along the rear-axle stay.
