Three new models have been added to the well-liked Grifn all-road lineup by Belgian bike maker Ridley. Each model has special characteristics designed to satisfy the needs of contemporary riders. The Grifn RS, a high-performance carbon choice, the Grifn A, an inexpensive alloy alternative, and the E-Grifn, the brand's first foray into the electric bike market, are the most recent additions.
Ridley Grifn RS: Racing Performance
The
Grifn RS is a carbon racing bike designed by Ridley for athletes who want the best possible performance. Its lightweight carbon fiber design, which was prioritized during engineering, improves responsiveness on the road. Dropped seatstays, a D-shaped seatpost, and a front fork crown diffuser for better aerodynamics are notable features. The ability to swap between 1x and 2x chainsets allows riders to tailor their configuration for maximum racing effectiveness. With 5% less resistance than the Grifn RS, it offers a competitive advantage on the tarmac.
