Optimizing forms I our racing frames are designed and developed internally from concept to a strong computer analysis. constantly review and correct the tubular structure to achieve specific objectives in terms of performance and estetica.Le forces affecting a bicycle are well known, like the features you want from a ciclista.Partendo the design principles of our industrial designers, we can optimize the conformation the pipes to get the best ride quality: stability front, stiffness bracket, smooth ride, torsional rigidity of the frame.
Geometry
An often overlooked but essential part of the frame is the geometria.Perfezionata in years and years of production of frames for the top professionals in Belgium, the geometry of Ridley is designed to fit almost all cyclists strada.La Our geometry is so convenient that all of our cyclists, including the entire team Predictor-Lotto (formerly Davitamon-Lotto) is using frames instead of standard models with custom geometry.
With carbon fiber modulus, tensile strength and resistance to stress much higher than those of steel, aluminum or titanium, carbon fiber is the most suitable material for the production of solid yet lightweight racing frames and flessibili.Ridley collaborates with industry leaders in the production of carbon fiber, and the production of monocoque and joints in composite materials and carbonio.Utilizzando best methodologies in the field and selecting the best materials for each part of each frame, we can achieve some of the best racing bikes on the planet.
program assembly
The application of the available carbon fibers have a direct effect on product quality finale.Controllando the way in which carbon fibers are arranged, we can make the most benefit from the quality elastic and strength of materiale.Un careful development and monitoring of the program frame assembly ensures maximum quality.
Aluminum tubes for each aluminum frame Ridley characteristics are selected to travel well precise.Ridley uses a wide range of aluminum parts, the traditional double or triple butted tubes, Scandium, and tarperlite hydroform. The frames are great Ridley cold welding is not smooth, which join the pipes in the strongest possible. Construction and testing
The quality control is a main point of produzione.I frames are tested both internally and by third parties. Our test bike normally exceeds two times more stringent than those of the competition that frames can not overcome.
testing in wind tunnel aerodynamic tests run
Ridley is in CAD in the wind tunnel in Brussels. Conducted in collaboration with the ProTour team Predictor-Lotto, the tests are intended to improve the position of the cyclist for time trials, and are also used to test the prototypes in order to improve efficiency than the wind.
Cycling
professional products are used at the highest levels in the ProTour with the Belgian team Predictor-Lotto. With a series of successes that has already passed the 100 victories, the team is a continuous test and a source of evidence that allow further refinements and those miglioramenti.Come road, Ridley cyclocross bikes have been designed in collaboration with top industry professionals, and changes to the frames represent the evolution of the cup World ciclocross.Non is no coincidence that four of the last five world champions race on Ridley bikes.
