...And Many Ways To Pay...

  • It's also better suited to the R872 desired ride quality, that of a comfortable endurance bike. This means it's not as stiff but rather more forgiving over long distances.
  • It may have an entry-level price tag but this lightweight racer is good enough to take on bikes that cost twice as much.

  • The feature that surprised me most about the Ribble R872 Disc's ride is the front end stiffness. In this respect it feels like a bike costing way more than this. Haul on the alloy handlebar and everything is absolutely rock solid.
