Ridley

<p>Really fast, really light and just utterly beautiful. Ridley analyzed every nuance of the Helium to see where excess could be removed and strength could be added. The result is a high-modulus carbon fibre frame that weighs in at less than 1kg. It gives you stiffness to stomp to a sprint finish and the lightness that sails over the loftiest peak. A pressfit bottom bracket optimizes your output, and ultra-thin seatstays increase lateral stiffness and vertical flex. Rounded shaping is used on the seat, top, and down tubes, offering the best stiffness-to-weight ratio with the least amount of material. An oversized, tapered headtube reduces weight and increases stiffness on the front end for heightened steering precision. Superior Shimano® Ultegra components and a Di2 11-speed drivetrain offers shifting speed and precision that was unimaginable even a few years ago.</p><ul><li>Frame uses high-grade carbon, 24 to 30-ton unidirectional high-modulus carbon fibre, to substantially lighten the frame.

Mechanical disc brakes are more powerful than rim brakes, but less powerful than hydraulic brakes.

The hub affects a bike’s rolling efficiency. Internally geared hubs require significantly less maintenance.

Cassettes with a smaller range allow you to go faster; a bigger range makes climbing hills easier.
