Its aerodynamically optimised Ultra-HM carbon frame is paired with an electronic SRAM RED XPLR 1x13 drivetrain, integrated power meter and premium DT Swiss GRC 1400 DICUT carbon wheels. The result is a true high-end gravel bike made for racing, fast long-distance rides and ambitious riders.
At the heart of the Kanzo Fast 2.0 is Ridley's Elite Series Ultra-HM carbon frame. Ridley transfers the third generation of its aerodynamic technology developed for the Noah Fast into the gravel segment. The tube profiles have been specifically optimised around the high-volume tyres used in modern gravel racing, helping the bike maintain excellent aerodynamic efficiency despite its wide tyres.
The progressive performance geometry is equally focused on modern gravel racing. A steeper seat angle supports an efficient and aerodynamic riding position, while the lower bottom bracket increases stability at high speeds. Adjusted fork rake helps maintain agile and precise steering even with the larger tyres.
As the flagship model, the Kanzo Fast 2.0 is equipped with SRAM's premium RED XPLR AXS 1x13 drivetrain. The electronic system combines fast and precise shifting with gearing developed specifically for modern gravel racing. A 44T aero chainring is paired with a SRAM XG-1391 10–46T cassette, providing the range required for both high-speed race sections and demanding climbs.
A power meter is integrated directly into the SRAM RED XPLR crankset. Accurate power data can therefore be recorded straight out of the box, making it an invaluable tool for structured training, controlled pacing during long gravel races and detailed performance analysis.
Matching the uncompromising specification are DT Swiss GRC 1400 DICUT carbon wheels. Their 50 mm deep carbon rims combine aerodynamic performance with low weight and are specifically designed for fast gravel riding. The tubeless-ready construction also makes it easy to take advantage of a modern tubeless setup.
Vittoria Peyote Race G2.0 tyres in 29 x 2.25" provide plenty of grip and control across rough terrain. With clearance for tyres up to 58 mm wide, the frame offers plenty of flexibility to adapt the bike to fast, technical or particularly demanding gravel courses.
The integrated 4ZA Nimbus Pro cockpit creates a clean front end while complementing the aerodynamic design of the Kanzo Fast 2.0. A dedicated Deda aero seatpost and Selle Italia Novus Boost Superflow 3D saddle with carbon rails further underline the premium specification.
For long races and adventures, a discreet storage compartment is integrated into the downtube. Essentials such as a spare tube, CO₂ cartridge or multitool can be stored directly inside the frame, keeping important repair equipment on the bike without compromising its clean and aerodynamic appearance.
The Ridley Kanzo Fast 2.0 Red XPLR combines Ridley's fastest gravel platform with a truly premium specification. SRAM RED XPLR AXS, an integrated power meter, DT Swiss GRC 1400 DICUT carbon wheels and carefully selected components make this the high-end flagship of the Kanzo Fast 2.0 range. It is an uncompromising gravel race bike for riders looking to combine maximum speed, low weight and modern off-road performance.
