I thought Bonn was made capital because :
-It was near Cologne (the largest city in the largest state of NRW, and Adenauer's hometown)
-It wasn't as damaged as other cities during the War (and thus had buildings to house the government, I believe this is the reason why Wiesbaden is capital of Hessen)
-And also given a lot of politicians ultimately wanted to return the capital to Berlin, that that would be easier from Bonn than from Frankfurt.
