Ribble Cycles has released a Ribble 725 gravel model crafted using Reynolds 725 tubing. Comprising of three key bike offerings – Gravel 725 Pro, Gravel 725 Enthusiast and Gravel 725 Sport – the range has been designed for off-road terrain, with Reynolds steel tubing as the newest addition to the brand’s expanding gravel bike platform.
The new bikes have triple butted Reynolds 725 heat treated steel tube profiles, a full carbon monocoque fork with tapered steerer, flared gravel riser handlebars with progressive frame geometry tailored specifically for control and handling on rugged terrains.
Tyre clearance of up to 45mm for 700c or 47mm for 650b wheels are combined with internal cable routing to keep cables free from dirt and grime. Finished in Matt Air Force Blue with gloss blue details with custom colour available, the design incorporates multiple mounting points for maximum luggage carrying capacity including rear rack mounts, carryall mounts on the fork and multiple bottle mounts.
Ribble adds that…
- The Gravel 725 Pro SRAM Rival XPLR AXS is a high-performance gravel bike weighing in at 10.8kg (medium) designed without limits for off-road exploration. Equipped with the wireless shifting performance of SRAM’s XPLR eTap AXS groupset, Mavic Allroad wheels wrapped with Halo GXC gravel tyres to offer control across any technical terrain.
- The Gravel 725 Enthusiast SRAM Rival provides a confident and comfortable ride across any ground with SRAM Rival 1x groupset, Mavic Allroad and LEVEL gravel optimised finishing kit.
- The Gravel 725 Sport SRAM Apex 1 provides an accessible and versatile gravel offer whether it’s for a short off-road blast or an epic bikepacking excursion.
Jamie Burrow, Ribble Head of Product, said “Gravel is an extremely exciting dynamic – embraced and enjoyed by the Ribble team from participating in the inaugural UCI World Championships to bike packing adventures.
“The all-new 725 models complement and enhance our gravel platform where our design focuses on off-road optimised frames, long and low geometry, oversized headtubes and flared bars.”
Builds can be fine-tuned and personalised using the Ribble BikeBuilder and CustomColour tools and include options such as Campagnolo Ekar 1×13.
