Ridley

<p>An ultra-stable workhorse backed by 'cross-specific geometry, a light, strong carbon frame and Ridley's well-established CX heritage. The X-Fire's super-stiff front end puts emphasis on handling. The tapered head tube and short top tube put you in solid control of tight course corners. The bottom bracket has a short drop for good pedal clearance when your tires and rims are buried, and the cables run internally through the front triangle to make it easy to shoulder. Avid BB7 brakes deliver stopping power and precise modulation, and grippy Clement tires give much-needed traction on sketchy surfaces. As Ridley's flagship 'cross model, the X-Fire's abilities don't end at the CX course – you can stomp it home on the bike path too.</p><ul><li>Ridley 24-ton high modulus, cyclocross frame balances rigidity and impact resistance</li><li>Oversized tapered head tube adds front end stiffness and steering precision</li><li>Pressfit 30 bottom bracket allows the use of wider down tube and bottom bracket shell, providing maximum power output</li><li>Flat-sectioned seatstays add comfort to the rigid frame, dissipating and absorbing road vibrations</li><li>Internal cable routing is clean, aero, and gives mud fewer places to collect (because there will be mud).
