MOVING THE TIME

A Never-ending Fusion of Sophisticated Technology.

One of Ridley's most recognizable points are the beautiful paint jobs on the frames.

Frames are still painted in Belgium with a time and labor consuming method of transfers, so logos and designs are all painted on in stages.

This difficult process is what makes Ridley the most stunning bicycle in the peleton.


Ridley Bicycles was founded in 1990. Through innovative technical and graphic design, Ridley quickly became the leading manufacturer in Belgium.

In the early years, Ridley became known for supporting local grass roots teams and riders in Belgium, including a young Tom Boonen when he won the Belgian U23 championship in 2001.

Ridley has since become the leader in cyclocross, Belgium’s national sport. Four of the last five world champion winners have ridden Ridley bicycles.

In 2006 in Zeddam, the Netherlands, Ridley scored a one-two finish with Erwin Vervecken and Bart Wellens, and also the U23 championship with Zdenek Stybar.

In 2003 Ridley released its first full carbon road frame, the Damocles, which has since gone on to win countless victories in grand tours, spring classics, and more with ProTour team Davitamon-Lotto.

Its unique Sharp Edge Design tube shaping and oversized head tube proved to be stiff enough for mountain top finishes, yet also just as comfortable on the Belgian pavé.

The Noah made its debut at the 2006 Tour de France and was ridden to 5th place overall by Cadel Evans, and first place in the Sprint competition to green jersey winner Robbie McEwen, who also took three stages on his new bike.

The incredible frame stiffness in the bottom bracket, integrated seat post, and oversize head tube areas led McEwen to call it “the fastest bike I’ve ever ridden”.
