About Ridley
What makes Ridley bikes so special?
Born in a country with a rich cycling tradition, Belgium, Ridley bikes embody the spirit of competition and the passion for cycling that has driven the brand since its inception. By choosing a Ridley, you become part of this history.
Each Ridley bike is the result of innovative thinking, combining sophisticated design with advanced technology. Whether you're looking for speed on the road, endurance on rough terrain, or simply a high-quality bike for daily use, you'll find what you're looking for with Ridley.
The Origins of Ridley
Ridley is a Belgian brand that was founded in 1990 in a country with a strong cycling heritage. Its founder, Jochim Aerts, began his journey in the cycling industry as a custom frame builder. Driven by his passion for cycling, as well as his love for design and innovation, Aerts set out to build the Ridley brand with a vision to create bikes that combine technological perfection with exceptional aesthetic design.
Over the years, Ridley has been responsible for numerous innovations in the cycling industry, including the introduction of the tapered head tube, which was first featured on the Ridley Damocles in 2001. This development later became the industry standard in bike manufacturing.
Today, Ridley is the largest bike manufacturer in Belgium and continues to be at the forefront of technology. Each Ridley model, from conception to production, carries a piece of the company's history and Belgian cycling culture.
Main Ridley Models
Road Bikes
Among the most popular Ridley models, you'll find the Ridley Noah, renowned for its exceptional speed and aerodynamics. It is designed for cyclists seeking optimal performance in races and sprints. The Ridley Fenix is another highly regarded model. It is specially designed to offer superior comfort during long rides and on demanding terrains.
Mountain Bikes
If you prefer a full-suspension cross-country mountain bike, choose the Ridley Raft. This model perfectly combines XC performance with downhill fun.
If you enjoy riding on a hardtail mountain bike, we recommend the Ridley Probe or the Ridley Ignite.
Gravel Bikes
If you love exploring new terrains, the Ridley Kanzo is the ideal travel companion for gravel roads and forest trails. This model is perfect for events and everyday rides.
Ridley in the World of Competition
Ridley is the preferred bike of many cyclists and professional teams. Among them, Lotto Soudal has won countless victories in the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España thanks to their Ridley bikes. And the famous cyclist André Greipel has celebrated more than one victory on his loyal Ridley.
The Advantages of Buying a Refurbished Ridley Bike
Acquiring a refurbished bike offers three main advantages:
The first is economic. By choosing to buy a used and refurbished Ridley bike from Tuvalum, you can save from 20% to 60% compared to the price of a new bike.
The second advantage is mechanical revision. While it is possible to buy a used Ridley bike from an individual, most platforms and second-hand product applications do not guarantee the condition of the items sold. You would then have to trust a stranger and risk buying a bike with hidden damages. At Tuvalum, all bikes are meticulously checked and refurbished by our team of mechanics who ensure that each bike meets the same technical standards and approvals required by the European Union for new bikes. Additionally, they come with a one-year mechanical warranty and an 18-month repurchase guarantee.
Another good reason to buy a refurbished Ridley bike is its positive influence on sustainable development. By opting for a bike that has already been manufactured, you contribute to reducing the ecological footprint generated by the purchase of a new bike. Did you know that a new bike produces a carbon footprint of 300 kilograms of CO2 during its production?
