About this product
The Ridley Dean RS Triathlon/TT Carbon Bike is a high-performance time trial and triathlon bicycle, featuring a 50cm small carbon fiber frame and 700C carbon wheels. Equipped with SRAM FORCE components and 11 speeds, it is designed for speed with aerobar handlebars and clincher tires. This 2013 model utilizes rim brakes and offers no suspension, prioritizing lightweight and aerodynamic efficiency for racing.
Our take
This Ridley Dean RS is clearly built for speed and serious competition. The carbon fiber frame and carbon wheels keep the weight down, which is essential for time trials and triathlons. With SRAM FORCE components and 11 speeds, you've got precise shifting and a wide gear range for flat stretches and climbs. The aerobar handlebars force an aggressive, aerodynamic riding position, which is great for racing but might not be the most comfortable for casual rides. It features rim brakes, which were standard for performance bikes of its 2013 model year, but are less common now compared to disc brakes. No suspension means a direct feel of the road, which is expected for a racing machine.
