I looked at some of the used rim brake options popping up on the forum and would have loved to try one but can't imagine getting rid of the caad13 for one.

Anyway.... cool on them for coming out with a pretty cool frameset option!

Having a Fairlight Secan, I can say I absolutely still think this Ritchey is cool and perhaps in a yearish there will be one in my garage. Definitely an emotional response there, but its something I have hoped Ritchey would design for many years.

- 1 1/8 head tube and straight steerer is cool.
- Ritchey name is cool(Fairlight too, for the uber-nerds that even know of it).
- My Secan is 1st gen without fork mounts. Dont really care much, but it is a difference.
- I have Conti TerraSpeed 45s that measure at 43.5mm on my Secan. I see this Ritchey as a 32-35mm tire bike and would be a main road bike. So really more like the Fairlight Strael, for me at least.
