Ridley

<p>Designed for QOM chasers and mountain-pass climbers, the Aura X is based on the successful Ridley Helium. Ridley used the experience acquired from designing the Helium to remove excess material and add just the right amount of stiffness to achieve a sub-1200g frame and fork. The result is a bike that climbs like no other and provides more stiffness than one would expect from its weight. A pressfit bottom bracket optimizes your output, and ultra-thin seat stays increase lateral stiffness and vertical compliance. 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 head tube reduces weight and increases stiffness on the front end for heightened steering precision. A frame this good deserves a certain calibre of components, so Ridley opted for Shimano's excellent 11-speed 105 groupset, a well-respected set of Mavic Aksium Elite wheels and a host of proven 4ZA Stratos components to tie this whip together.</p><ul><li>High-modulus carbon fibre frame with round tubes is engineered for the optimal strength-to-weight ratio</li><li>Tapered, reinforced head tube shaves grams, aids aggressive handling and provides excellent impact protection</li><li>Ultra-thin chainstays provide shock absorption for a comfortable, buzz-free ride</li><li>Full carbon fibre fork with carbon steerer keeps the weight low</li><li>Internal routing aids aerodynamics while keeping cables silky smooth</li><li>Pressfit bottom bracket aids power transfer without adding weight</li><li>Carbon fibre dropouts help cut overall weight, while stainless steel inserts add protection</li><li>Mavic Aksium wheelset with 25mm Mavic Yksion Elite Guard tires</li><li>Shimano 11-speed 105 drivetrain provides crisps shifting</li><li>FSA Gossamer Pro crankset is equipped with 50-34T chainrings for versatile gearing options</li><li>4ZA brakes keeps your speed in check</li><li>Seat, seat post, stem and other components are 4ZA Stratos</li><li>Bikes are covered by MEC's Rocksolid Guarantee and Bike Service Agreement.

Ridley Aura X50 - Women's

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

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