Description

The ULTRA-GRIT is Ribble’s fastest gravel bike—developed and proven by our pro gravel team, the Ribble Outliers, in the chaos of the world’s toughest off-road races, from Unbound to The Traka to The Dirty Reiver. Weighing just 8.0 kg, this range-topping build is made for riders who thrive on the unknown. It pairs a lightweight, aerodynamic frameset with SRAM’s flagship Red XPLR AXS gravel groupset, featuring a built-in power meter for pro-level training and race insight. Zipp 303 XPLR carbon wheels, versatile 45mm Schwalbe G-One R tyres, a 3D-printed Selle Italia Novus Boost saddle, and a carbon integrated cockpit complete this ultimate performance package.

Groupset

RED XPLR AXS is built for gravel racers and serious riders chasing every advantage. It delivers ultra-lightweight performance, crisp wireless shifting, and one-finger braking—so you can attack climbs, rail descents, and stay in control at full speed. The 13-speed 10-46T cassette offers tight steps to keep you in the power zone, while the Full Mount derailleur adds rock-solid reliability with no hanger or adjustment screws to worry about. The spider-based power meter with dual-sided measurement tracks every watt with pro-level accuracy, giving you the data to push harder, train smarter, and hit your goals—no matter how big the ride.

Groupset

Wheelset

The Zipp 303 XPLR SW wheelset is purpose-built for gravel, delivering exceptional speed, control and efficiency across rough terrain. Its ultra-wide rim is designed specifically for modern gravel tyres, increasing air volume so you can run lower pressures for improved grip, reduced vibration and better climbing traction without sacrificing stability. Built around Zipp’s Total System Efficiency approach, it combines aerodynamic performance with a lightweight feel that keeps you fast and comfortable over long distances. Paired with 45 mm Schwalbe G-One R Pro tyres, the setup strikes an ideal balance of speed, grip and stability, giving you the confidence to push further across varied and demanding surfaces.

Wheelset

Handlebars

Precision-engineered from high-grade carbon, the Ribble Aero Gravel integrated handlebars combine race-ready stiffness with a streamlined aero profile to reduce drag and enhance efficiency. Flared drops provide added stability and control over rough terrain, while ergonomic shaping ensures all-day comfort. Fully integrated cable routing completes the sleek, cable-free aesthetic.

Handlebars

Saddle

A narrow D-shaped carbon seat post introduces flex where it counts, helping to take the edge off the roughest surfaces for a smoother ride, leaving you feeling fresher for longer. Paired with a Selle Italia Novus Boost 3D Kit Carbonio Superflow saddle, featuring a 3D-printed surface designed to maximise comfort and performance and a Superflow cutout for increased flexibility and airflow.

Saddle

Suspension Upgrade

When the gravel turns rough and the terrain gets technical, the RockShox Rudy Ultimate fork steps in to smooth out the ride. Available as an upgrade on the Ribble ULTRA-GRIT, this premium suspension fork is purpose-built for gravel racing—offering up to 30mm of tunable travel for improved comfort, control, and confidence. Whether you're carving through gravel or hammering down technical descents, Rudy’s refined damping and lightweight design help you stay fast, focused, and in total command.
