A mold manufacturing method for monocoque bicycle components comprises the steps of i) providing a first female mold comprising a pair of first half molds delimiting first surfaces to circumscribe a first mold cavity to form first component portions; ii) providing a second female mold comprising a pair of second half molds delimiting second surfaces to circumscribe a second mold cavity to form second component portions; and iii) interposing at least part of third female molds between the first and second female molds, so that third surfaces delimited by the third female molds join with continuity the first and the second surfaces, the third surfaces being configured to form third component portions in a single piece with the first and second component portions. Step iii) comprises a sub-step of manufacturing at least part of the third surfaces of the third female molds by rapid prototyping.
