Ridley Noah Fast 3.0 Shimano Ultegra (British Racing Green)

The Nimbus Aero cockpit follows the trend in the peloton towards narrower handlebars (360 center-center) with flared drops (400 center-center). The top of the handlebar has a slight backsweep for an ergonomic position. The drops of the handlebar allow a aero position of the shifters, while being UCI compliant.

The Nimbus Aero cockpit was specifically developed for this new model and was an integral part of the frame's development process.

Pushing The Limits Of UCI Regulations
The new Noah Fast has been fully developed based on the latest UCI regulations regarding tube shapes and profiles. The main difference is the use of the 8:1 rule, which allows tubes to be eight times longer than their width, whereas previously it was 3:1. The result is long, narrow profiles in the fork and seat stays.

Progressive Racing Geometry
A steeper seat angle aligns with the changing preference of riders towards a position with an open hip angle for a better power transfer. 

A lowered bottom bracket compensates for the wider tires used in modern cycling. 

Finally, the lower head tube with integrated cockpit allows the rider to have a more aggressive aero position, resulting in a reduced frontal area.

Tested & Approved by Uno X Mobility
We develop our bikes in consultation with the professional cyclists of Uno-X Mobility. They provide feedback during the development process so that we can further optimize our bikes. For us, the quality label that the bikes are tested and approved by the professionals at the highest level is essential. The result of this collaboration? Victory in the Omloop Nieuwsblad and the team’s very first stage win in the Tour in 2025.

Holistic Approach To Aerodynamics
The new Noah Fast is not merely a lightning-fast bike but a 100% ‘performance package’ that approaches cycling from a 360-degree perspective. Every aspect of the bike is adapted to modern cycling. The cockpit dimensions and frame geometry are tailored to the expectations of professional riders. The tire clearance of 34mm will allow even use the Noah Fast on rough terrain like Paris-Roubaix. The developers carried out all simulations with the bike as a whole. That means: including wheels, water bottles, bike computer, and all other essentials. They did these tests under difference wind angles to simulate the performance in the real world . After all, this is how riders actually use the Noah Fast.

Removable Front Derrailleur Clamp
Our innovative removable front derailleur clamp ensures a sleek, streamlined appearance when using a 1x setup. In collaboration with Wolf Tooth, we’ve developed a custom chainguide and chain catcher perfectly tailored to fit our frames. To maintain a clean and polished look, we’ve also designed a specialized cover to seamlessly replace the clamp when it’s not in use. 

Universal Derrailleur Hanger
The universal derailleur hanger (UDH) is the new standard in the cycling world. Not only is this derailleur hanger compatible with all modern shifting groups, it also protects against derailleur breakage and chain drops. In mountain biking, UDH has long been very common, and Ridley is bringing the technology to other segments as well.
