A benchmark brand present at the highest level, RIDLEY was born of the passion of a young cyclist, Joachim Aerts, who at the age of 18 turned to frame design and painting and created Race Productions. For seven years, he worked for various manufacturers, before becoming independent in 1997 with the birth of RIDLEY. Located in the Flemish part of Belgium - a land of cycling par excellence, where the harsh conditions (wind, cold, cobbled roads) are ideal for testing the strength and performance of prototypes - the company has built up a solid reputation in just a few years, with high-performance machines of meticulous design. Designed at the company's headquarters, the frames are manufactured in China and Taiwan. The bikes are then assembled on the brand's premises, using 4ZA (Forza) components, a RIDLEY subsidiary brand offering high-quality wheels, saddles, seatposts and hangers. In addition, top-of-the-range models are hand-painted, with recognized expertise in the field. Today, the brand offers a complete range of Road, Triathlon/CLM, Cyclocross and even MTB models.
A partner of professional teams from the outset, notably Team Lotto Soudal, RIDLEY relies on champions like Tony Gallopin and André Greipel to design bikes that are fast, responsive, comfortable and solid. Acclaimed for both the look and performance of its products, the Belgian brand is available at Probikeshop. Come and discover it!

The Noah Fast is simply breathtaking. It offers impressive relaunches and is easy to master. Obviously, its geometry isn't suited to the mountains, but on flat or even slightly hilly courses, it's a real missile, ultra-rigid and responsive. And when it comes to safety, the fork-integrated braking system is incredibly biting and effective. In short, a real racing beast!
