Ridley Noah 3.0 - "Pushing the limits of UCI regulations"
Pushing the limits is a badge of honour at Ridley. We first saw the Noah 3.0 at the Ridley factory in November of last year, and we were frankly astounded - it looked like an alien machine from a distant future.
Ridley have clearly been making good use of their wind tunnel - the Noah 3.0 has only one brief - speed. In the grand spirit of Ridley TdF sprint-winners Robbie McEwen, André Greipel, and Caleb Ewan - the project is to capture and control power into velocity. Everything else is noise.
"The 3.0 project is to capture and control power into velocity. Everything else is noise."
Capture & Control Fast 3.0
The 3.0 is a pure race bike. Designed to throw uncompromising riders at the scenery, in such a fashion that a trophy is achievable if not inevitable. There are no concessions to any other variables. Some folk will love that spirit of focus on their weekend social rides and some will not. We recommend that ye know thyself before succumbing to the hypnotic appeal of the Noah 3.0.
