Ritchey Rides
It started with a broken frame- an education from failure. Forged in the flickering of a torch; the brazing of intelligent design and structural soundness. Honed in years of pedigree and knowledge in search for perfection that's just one ride away from being found. The expereince is the ride. The ride is Ritchey.

Ritchey posts benefit from the “less-is-more” philosophy in offering some of the best, lightest, race-ready gear at an attainable price.
Saddles
Years of testing and abuse have lead to some of our greatest innovations. Ritchey saddles include features like Vector Wing technology, which alleviates pressure points in sit bones while dispersing ride vibrations and harshness. Vector Evo is a unique take on single rail saddle systems that not only weigh well below the competition, but offer 25% more ride compliance which calculates to longer time in the saddle.

The critical interface between frame, fork and stem, the headset is the basis for precision steering. You don't notice a headset that performs properly, but your ride can be ruined by a bad one. Ritchey headsets are designed to take the abuse of bad roads and tough trails, while delivering smooth, reliable performance for countless miles.

Forks
While the industry pushes for stiffer and more harsh riding bikes, Ritchey focuses on the ride quality of the bike. Ritchey recognizes where bikes need to be stiff, and where they need to comply to the ride when the terrain may get more rigorous. For more than 40 years, riders have known to look to Ritchey bike forks for a truly sublime ride experience.

Wheels
As important as the frame that pilots them, Ritchey wheels are as meticulously designed as any component that bears the Ritchey logo. With a careful understanding of the forces that are exerted upon them, Ritchey wheel systems are built with the principal that each piece is to do its job perfectly, with no compromise. The result is a wheel that is reactive and lively within its environment whether it's the trail or tarmac.

Tires
When creating tread profiles for the first Ritchey tires, Tom looked at the way tires wore down to identify where they needed tread the most. The result of this observation is Vector Force Analysis, an approach that had been used in car tire design, but never before with bicycles. From VFA, Tom designed some of the more iconic Ritchey tires, including the Olympic- and world championship-proven SpeedMax and Z-Max treads. Now with robust Stronghold casing and tubeless-ready beads, Ritchey tires are some of the most engaging tires on the market today.

Ritchey bike accessories are as honest as the legendary bicycle components that bear the same name.

Bar Tape
A key accent that can define a bike, handlebar tape choice requires some deliberate consideration. Does one keep it simple and black, or go full Euro-pro with white bar tape and saddle? Perforated or non? Cork? Don't worry, Ritchey has all these options covered with a concise line of high-quality handlebar tape.
