New Ritchey Road



$1,179.95 for the frameset
New:
Fork
Clearance for 30c
Paint

Wish they would adopt replaceable derailleur hangers. All-in-all pretty similar to the Mr. Pink.

Thoughts?

I like! I am a Road Logic fan boy though. Clearance for 30 is pretty great. I hope that fork is available separately.

fork looks fine to me. Bike looks awesome but also a ritchey logic fanboy. Will get one someday.

@adam, if you want a carbon fork with tons of clearance, check out the whisky road plus. Clears 35s

No need for a replaceable hanger.

The previous generation handled really, really well (I ride mine almost daily). This generation is off the charts. Previous gen was about 170g lighter than the All City.

Ritchey's customer service/warranty sucks.

Had the prior gen ride past me on a climb a couple weeks back. Killer bikes for the money.

The mr pink has a bit more tire clearance which is nice but I would pick this guy over it personally.

Agreed. Only the younger generation doesn't realize you can repeatedly align a steel derailleur hanger whereas with aluminum you just stock up on replacements...

Yea that looks decent too. Not that I actually have a real need for either fork. My vintage Road Logic with steel fork already clears 30's.

From what I read, steel forks are too heavy now a days unless they are custom. You gotta pass all sorts of inspections and a super light fork won't clear it and add a ton of weight to the front weight. Maybe some don't mind it but the logic is suppose to be a road bike and lightness, like it or not, its desirable.

I get that they want you to use their matching fork and sell it as a frameset, but I think the juxtaposition of the HT and the fork crown/blades too abrupt. I know Ritchey likes their integrated headsets or whatever, but a 44mm head tube would presumably be cheaper while allowing more options. But, it's their bike. Nice color.
