Ritchey OUTBACK V2 FRAMESET

Ritchey: Tom Ritchey rides about 10,000 miles (16,000 km) per year, and most of that is off-road. Combine that with his more than 50 years of designing and building bicycles, and it’s no wonder the Outback has become an icon in the gritty world of gravel and adventure bikes. Wrapped in tasty Guac y Crema paint, the Outback sports several practical and adaptable features that offer riders the ability to chase epic ride experiences beyond the end of the road and the end of the day. Rack and fender mounts help to keep things dry and expand the load-carrying capacity for longer bikepacking adventures, while clearance for 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tires opens up a whole new world of possibilities. Doubling down on the Outback’s practical performance, an all-carbon fiber Ritchey Adventure Fork with multi-purpose mounts on the legs gives you more places to stow the supplies you gather at the last café.The Outback is painstakingly TIG-welded with proprietary triple-butted Ritchey Logic steel tubing that now sports an updated one-piece truss design for flat mount brakes* - providing as much stiffness and strength of previous mounts while significantlyreducing chainstay weight.Bikepacking, road, off-road, trail, expedition, you name it…the Ritchey Outback is designed do it all.Includes Ritchey Adventure Fork with multipurpose mountsAccepts 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tiresFeatures rack and fender mounts TECH SPECSFRAMEMaterial heat-treated, triple-butted Ritchey Logic steel tubing - TIG weldedUltra-light forged and machined straight 1-1/8 headtubeElectrophoretic Deposition (ED Coat) treated for corrosion resistanceSeat tube clamp size 28.6mm (2.5Nm max for derailleur clamps and chain guides)27.2mm seat tube with integrated seat collar (max torque setting: 6Nm)Bottom bracket 68mm - English threaded142mm spacing (12mm alloy thru-axle included)Crankset min/max ring size - single 36 to 46t / double: 46/30t to 50/34t Can accommodate 1X or 2X chainringsBottle mounts 3 Rack and fender mountsExternal cable routingWCS headset included (upper IS42/28.6 - 16mm stack height | lower IS42/30)Replaceable stainless-steel derailleur hangerFORKNew Ritchey Carbon Adventure Fork with multi-purpose, rack and fender mounts1-1/8 straight steerer with integrated 45-degree crown race Steerer length 300mmFork length 390mmAxle-crown 393mmRake/Offset 50mm100mm spacing (12mm alloy thru-axle included)Fork max payload 3kg per side30mm maximum spacers below stemTIRE COMPATIBILITYWheel and tire compatibility 700 x 48mm or 650 x 2.0in (depending on tire/rim manufacturer)Frame max spacing 58mmFork max spacing 60mm BRAKE COMPATIBILITYFlat-mount brakes front and rear 140mm (160mm max - adaptors available separately)Frame flat-mount bracket height 10mm DETAILSSizes XS / S / M / L / XLFrame weight 2,175g (size L - w/o thru-axle)Fork weight 445g (with uncut steerer / not including axle)Colour Guac y Crema
