NEW IN: The Ribble CGR – All roads, all rides, all ways

The first exciting new arrival in the 2017 Ribble range is the versatile CGR – so named because of its ability to do everything and tackle all surfaces and conditions – Cross, Gravel and Road. The CGR is a light yet robust 7005 aluminium bike with disc brakes and clearance to take 35mm tyres. This cleverly designed frame could easily become the key do-it-all bike that you are looking for! “Stiff and fast, for a bike that’s designed for all roads the CGR does a pretty good job as a pure road bike” BikesEtc

The CGR excels at everything

You might be just starting out on your cycling journey or perhaps looking to rationalise your bikes with an all-rounder – the CGR excels at everything from winter training or commuting duties right through to summer adventures or long-distance touring. A light 7005 aluminium frame is coupled with a carbon fibre fork on the CGR. Disc brakes provide powerful and consistent braking that is superior to conventional rim brakes. If you're new to discs, you'll be amazed at the lever modulation (feel) and consistent power in all weather conditions.  

CGR Key Features

• Light but robust 7005 grade aluminium frame

For most people their bike purchases are carefully considered. It’s a significant investment and that’s why versatility and value for money often become major considerations. No one wants a bike that sits unused - taking up valuable space - a bike that’s not ‘pulling its weight.’ Versatility and practicality are at the core of the cleverly designed CGR - this is a bike that will not sit idle for very long. With the advantage of disc brakes, a carbon fork, mudguard mounts and pannier carrying capability this bike just ticks so many boxes. The all-round practicality of the CGR does not prevent it from being a nimble and enjoyable ride and as the bike’s designer says: “We wanted a bike that was comfortable enough to ride every day, efficient enough to ride all day and even agile enough to take off road.”

Lightweight CGR commuter

Built with flat handlebars the CGR can become a lightweight city bike capable of handling the worst of road conditions. For a faster commuting machine choose drop handlebars and with wider or even knobbly tyres, a multi-terrain commute would be no problem. If you are looking for one bike for that can do-it-all - the CGR is for you. There are no limitations with this bike only new horizons to explore. Currently the CGR is available as a Special Edition for £949.99 before it becomes available in our famous BikeBuilder. “Versatility is the name of the game with this bike” BikesEtc Commuting, Touring, Winter riding, Gravel or Summer fun – CGR is the bike for all seasons
