"We adore Ridley for their heritage, roots and unabashed commitment to cause."
Jeremy's Custom-Painted Ridley Astr
The Ridley Astr RS is for folk who want to ride gravel, not for the sake of the view, but to get a much-needed jot of adrenalin. They may harbour a secret ambition to start gravel-racing! The Ridley RS has been conceived to sit you low in an aero pocket, travelling at insane speeds, suspended above flying rocks and stones by up to 52mm of expensive polyamide threads and expensive Japanese latex. Jeremy's exquisite custom paint and finish was all his own work using Ridley's Custom Configurator. His bike uses a minimalist 'Original' scheme of Pearl White and Honey Gold Metallic.
One of the sleekest cockpits...
... in the aero/gravel firmament
Custom paint from Ridley's Configurator - we think Jeremy has shown exemplary taste!

Room for 52mm tyres. Just.
Down to business - UDH, Force 1 x 13 XPLR - almost de-rigour in '26
Elegant. Effective. Potent. This is a seriously capable machine.
