Ridley Liz SL D 105 Road Bike

The Ridley Liz SL features a super-lightweight full-carbon frameset that’s designed and engineered to ensure outstanding durability, comfort and control for female road cyclists. It’s optimised for endurance rides and long days in the saddle, plus, it’s equipped with superb components to ensure you get the best performance and enjoyment from every ride. Ridley has fitted it with a Shimano 105 2×11-Speed groupset with a compact 50/34T chainset, an 11-30T cassette and hydraulic disc brakes for versatile gear-shifting performance and powerful all-weather braking performance. Also, it rolls upon Shimano RS171 race wheels that are wrapped in Vittoria Zaffiro tyres, giving you an excellent balance of pace, stability and traction.

Strong, Agile and Lightweight All-Around Road Race Bike

They Ridley Liz is the quintessential “all-round” bike. It offers the perfect blend between performance, weight, strength, stiffness and especially comfort for long days in the saddle. Its unique diamond shape tubing creates reinforced edges for a robust frame with increased impact-resistance.

Ideal for Racing, Endurance Rides and Training Sessions

While the Liz expertly handles top competition, it is also perfectly suited for the part-time racer or recreational rider in terms of performance, comfort and cost. It’s the optimal bike for tackling your next Gran Fondo or extended tour through the Flemish Ardennes.

Efficient, Stylish and Versatile Carbon Road Bike

The Liz is the absolute top bike in the Ridley Endurance range. Thanks to the wide bottom bracket, the head tube and the diamond-shaped down tube, every pedal stroke is converted into speed. Meanwhile, the curved top tube, the 27.2mm seat tube and the fine rear stays provide a high level of comfort.

The Ridley Liz SL D 105 Road Bike features integrated cable routing and an aerodynamic handlebar, plus, it has a full carbon fork. This bike offers a cycling experience that has been significantly upgraded and these upgrades provide the perfect mix of comfort, stiffness and responsiveness that’s ideal for riding anywhere.

Technologies:

• Ridley Carbon: Ridley set extremely high standards for themselves. And, it all starts with their choice of raw materials. They use only the best quality carbon available, sourced from Toray. They are the world’s leading carbon manufacturer, supplying mainly to the aerospace industry. The grades of high-modulus carbon used varies from their most pliable 24-ton, which gives the frame flex and comfort, to 60-ton which is the stiffest.
• Liz Frame Shape: Its slightly longer rear triangle increases the bike’s wheelbase for added stability and comfort. It also allows for larger tyres up to 28mm for further increased comfort and versatility. Now you know how André Greipel can easily remain seated up the arduous Oude Kwaremont cobbled climb.
• Disc Brakes: Disc brakes are one of the newest game-changing evolutions in road cycling. They add that extra level of security to any ride, knowing that you can always stop on demand. They are equally reliable in all weather conditions. The ease of braking is a real bonus, especially when your hands are frozen and barely functional. Just a light pull on the lever to modulate your speed. With no need for braking on the rim surface, wear and tear is reduced. This gets you much more mileage from your wheelset.

Easy Assembly

When you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping. Upon delivery, the assembly is simple and all necessary tools and plastic pedals are conveniently included in the box.

Depending on the delivery service and destination, bikes will either be delivered in a large or a small box. Below is a guide as to how your bike will arrive:

• All bikes for delivery within the UK and Republic of Ireland will be delivered in a large box, except for balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
• All bikes for delivery within the EU on a standard service will be delivered in a large box. If an express delivery option is chosen, your bike will be packed into a small box. Again, the exception is balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
