The Helium frame is Ridley’s ultra-gourmet bike. With a focus on excellent stiffness to weight ratio, the Helium was designed to be as light as possible to tackle the longest, steepest climbs. Yet it is stiff and durable enough to expertly handle the most powerful sprints as well. It’ll help you to be fast on the climbs and grab those KOM’s, fly on the flats and rolling terrain, and sprint like a pro. It’s also comfy enough to keep you motivated to ride long distances to tackle Gran Fondos.
