The Ridley ASTR GRX600 2x12 Gravel Bike from Ridley is the ultimate gravel bike for those who wish to delve into the competitive world of racing and crave a bike that is as stable and responsive as it is fast and agile. Designed to ride fast on a variety of terrains, the ASTR features an impressive tyre clearance of up to 47m to increase your grip and comfort over more hairy surfaces and a carbon frame that is as stiff as it is lightweight. The bike’s geometry has been adapted to offer modern competitive performance with its 71.5 degree headtube angle for faster steering, steeper seat tube for improved climbing performance and power transfer and a lower bottom bracket that ensures more stability at higher speeds.

With its carefully engineered fork crown and integrated diffuser to reduce drag as air flows past the downtube, the ASTR is a speed machine. Whether you’re tackling gravel trails, setting your wheels on the starting line or aiming to beat your current personal best, the Ridley ASTR GRX600 2x12 is built to go the distance, and fast.
