2011 Ridley Noah - 2011
It's easy to get obsessed with shaving grams from your bike, but do you give much thought to grams of drag?

2012 Ridley Dean
Ridley spent a small fortune in the wind tunnel to develop a bike that shaves away drag by doing more than incrementally narrowing tube profiles or shortening a head tube.

2012 Ridley Helium - 2012
Who can forget stage 9 of the 2011 Tour de France as we watched horrifying imagery of Vacansoleil-DCM's Johnny Hoogerland as his breakaway companion Juan-Antonio Flecha was struck by a French media car, launching Hoogerland into a barbed wire fence at roadside. The disturbing video still ...read more

2012 Ridley Damocles - 2012

2012 Ridley Excalibur - 2012
The Excalibur is Ridley's best-selling race frame for good reason. Some of it is self-evident: At 1100 grams, it's second only to the Helium in Ridley's spectrum of lightness. This is because the Helium uses higher grade carbon fiber (and therefore less of it) netting a lower weight, while the ...read more
