If an urban, commuter bike is what you sensibly marry, then this bike is who you dated in college or fantasized that you did… I don’t remember 1/2 of what Richard or Cristobal from Ridley said during our meeting at a recent media event cause I was imagining myself doing drills with this bike. Didn't care at all that it’s spec’d with cantis instead of discs.
14.2 lbs and they scaled it, insisted, in front of me. What I like about the free-of-QBP Ridley, is they’re just absolutely not f’ing around chasing a trend or distracted by gravel. Nothing stupidly spec’d either.
The Blade Runner backstory just brought me in closer and closed the deal.
