Description

It doesn’t matter when you launch your attack. On a brutal climb, in the heat of a breakaway, or carving through fast corners on a technical descent, the UCI-approved ULTRA-RACE is built to deliver in every race situation. The featherlight frame is crafted from advanced carbon with targeted stiffness where it matters most, helping you put power down efficiently while staying composed at speed. SRAM’s Rival AXS E1 wireless groupset delivers smooth, precise shifting at the touch of a button, while Vision SC45 carbon wheels, Pirelli P Zero Race tyres and a race-ready Selle Italia saddle keep you fast, confident and in control. Finished with a one-piece aero cockpit, the ULTRA-RACE isn’t just built to compete, it’s built to perform when it counts.

Groupset

SRAM Rival AXS brings high-performance shifting and braking to everyday riding. Gear changes are smooth, fast and effortless at the press of a button, while powerful hydraulic disc brakes give you confident control in all conditions. With a lighter overall feel, built-in power measurement and over the air updates, it’s designed to make your rides smoother, more efficient and more enjoyable, whether you’re training, exploring or pushing the pace.

Groupset

Wheelset

Built for speed and everyday reliability, the Mavic Ksyrium 30 alloy wheels deliver a smooth, responsive ride that accelerates easily and remains stable on rougher roads. Paired with fast-rolling Pirelli P Zero Road tyres, they offer a confident balance of speed, grip and comfort for everything from training rides to weekend miles.

Wheelset

Handlebars

Built from premium-quality carbon, the Ribble Aero integrated handlebars keep your front end light, stiff and responsive, so every input feels direct and controlled. The streamlined shape helps you slice the air, while the ergonomic design keeps things comfortable on longer rides. Fully integrated cable routing keeps everything clean and out of the way, giving you a tidy, modern setup that looks as good as it rides.

Handlebars

Saddle

The carbon seat post is designed to soften the impact of rough roads, providing a touch of flex where it counts so you stay more comfortable over long distances. It helps dampen vibrations, keeping you feeling fresher from start to finish. Paired with a Selle Italia Model X Superflow saddle, you get a supportive, comfortable platform that allows you to move freely and remain settled, whether you’re riding steadily or pushing the pace.

Saddle

FAQ's

If you're between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the smaller option. It's easier to fine-tune the fit of a smaller frame by raising the seat post or using a longer stem, whereas a larger frame leaves much less room for adjustment.

Build weights are provided for a medium‑sized frame and are intended solely as general guidance. Actual weight will vary based on the selected components and accessories, as well as standard manufacturing tolerances. These figures do not constitute a guarantee or warranty of final product weight, and we may occasionally make minor modifications to specifications without prior notice.

  • Dura-Ace Di2 build: 7.0 kg
  • Red AXS build: 7.0 kg
  • Ultegra Di2 build: 7.7 kg
  • Force AXS build: 7.9 kg
  • 105 Di2 build: 8.3 kg
  • Rival AXS build: 8.3 kg
  • SRAM Red AXS build with Scope Artech wheels and a medium frame weighs 6.58 kg
  • Frame only (medium): 775 g

We offer a lifetime warranty on all Ribble frames and forks for the original purchaser. This covers any manufacturing defects in materials or workmanship so you can ride with complete confidence. The standard manufacturer's warranty covers all other components.

Yes, the ULTRA-RACE has received accreditation to be race-legal for UCI-sanctioned events.

Yes, enhanced cable integration offers a neat, cable-free appearance by keeping cables hidden, shielded from wind, and protected against the elements.

No, the handlebars can't be raised after the bike has been built, as the steerer tube is trimmed to the correct length during assembly. However, we include 20mm of spacers, so you can lower the bars if needed—but raising them further won't be possible.

Your bike comes with an SRAM AXS charger and two battery packs — one for the front derailleur and one for the rear. With SRAM’s latest updates, the charger doesn’t include a cable, but there’s no need to worry: any standard USB-C cable will do the job.

The ULTRA-RACE is equipped with fast, durable, and grippy 30mm road tyres and can accommodate up to 32 mm tyres.

No. Ribble bikes are supplied with inner tubes installed as standard, even when fitted with tubeless-ready wheels and tyres.

If you'd like to run a tubeless setup, the conversion must be carried out after delivery. This typically requires tubeless valves, sealant and, in some cases, tubeless rim tape depending on the wheel specification. We recommend following the wheel and tyre manufacturer's instructions when converting to tubeless.

This approach gives riders the flexibility to choose the setup that best suits their riding preferences and maintenance requirements.

No, the ULTRA-RACE is designed as a pure racing bike. For pannier rack compatibility, please explore the ALLROAD collection.

The ULTRA-RACE isn’t designed for traditional full-length mudguards. But it may be compatible with clip-on mudguards that attach to the seat stays and forks, for lighter, removable protection.

The ULTRA-RACE features two bottle mounts on the seat and down tubes. It is designed to be faster with bottles fitted than without. Pair it with Ribble Aero Bottle Cages to maximise aero gains.

It's designed to accept a 68mm BSA threaded bottom bracket.

No, the ULTRA-RACE uses a proprietary D-shaped carbon seatpost, making it incompatible with third-party brands.

The ULTRA-RACE uses a SRAM-specific derailleur hanger.

Yes, we recommend a maximum system weight of 120kg (bike, rider & luggage).

To accommodate the wide range of pedal and shoe preferences, our bikes don’t come with pedals as standard. However, you can easily add your preferred option from our best-selling pedal selection during the bike configuration process.
