The full-suspension Raft XC in Lime Green from Ridley delivers direct steering and a steep seat angle, which together ensure precise handling and powerful power transmission. The balanced geometry makes it the ultimate mountain bike for competitions and technically demanding trails. With 100 mm of suspension travel, it offers good damping and reliable control even at high speeds. The well-known SRAM X01 Eagle drivetrain stands for robustness, precise shifting, and durability.
The universal derailleur hanger (UDH) is the new standard in the cycling world. Not only is this derailleur hanger compatible with all modern groupsets, it also protects against derailleur breakage and chain drop. UDH has long been widely used in mountain biking, and Ridley is now bringing the technology to other segments.
The Raft XC is a full-suspension MTB with 100 mm of travel. The 100 mm of rear travel is performance-focused, and a remote lockout allows you to sprint with direct power transfer to the rear wheel.
Agile steering and a steep seat angle guarantee razor-sharp handling and efficient power transfer. Thanks to the longer wheelbase and the slacker head angle, you won’t lose time even on descents.
The Raft XC features a lightweight carbon fiber frame with mounting points for two bottle cages inside the front triangle. Additional mounting points allow you to attach tools or other accessories, such as a top tube bag.
