The first step in creating the Kanzo Fast was to pair the aero features and sublime power transfer of the Noah Fast Disc with our Kanzo gravel knowledge. Next our Ridley engineers spent hours in the wind tunnel and on gravel roads for further development and testing. What we created in the end was the perfect, aerodynamic gravel bike to win gravel races! Its geometry and aero handlebars are designed entirely according to the gravel standard. No gravel bike is as responsive as the Kanzo Fast. It combines NACA profiles with a very stiff bottom bracket to propel you forward with every pedal stroke. To ensure for optimal comfort, we set the seat stays extra low and used the vibration-damping D-shaped seatpost. Aerodynamic, yet comfortable! Key Features > Ditch the front derailleur! Maximum power transfer, aerodynamics and yet room for wide 42mm tires in a short chainstay are the result. > Thanks to a D-shaped steerer tube, we can fully integrate all cables. A huge aerodynamic advantage that looks so sleek! Geometries based on gender are outdated. Everyone is unique! > An aerodynamic gravel handlebar? It may seem like an impossible combination, until you try the incredibly aero Kanzo Fast handlebar! > The Kanzo Fast lets you tear across any surface as quickly as possible. This is due to meticulous attention paid to each aspect of it. > The Essential Series of Ridley bikes uses exceptional carbon by Toray, taking key features of the Elite Series to a more affordable level.
