I've been riding and racing on Castelli Team Issue kit for years and have found them very comfortable, especially in the heat of East Coast summers. Their comfort comes in large part from very thin and light materials which makes the bibs start to bag out within a few thousand miles. The Ritte 2.0 bibs use a material which is somewhat similar to compression Lycra, but a bit lighter and MUCH better at keeping muscles working properly under strain than the Castelli bibs. They do feel somewhat restrictive while getting kitted up, but once on the bike, they just disappear and do what they are designed to do. Ritte's use of the same material for the bib suspenders was a surprise as most bibs use some sort of knit webbing. But again, once on the bike they disappear and do a better job as self adjusting as my position changes than web suspenders do. I'd like the legs to be about 2cm longer, but that is just my style. The leg length has no effect on function since they don't ride up at all anyway. Love them. I ordered another pair.

Quality shirt and simply stated design, it fits well and looks good!

Love this micro brew, tasteful use of single origin hops!

Perhaps the most elemental bit of cycling gear, the Ritte Race Bibs, more than any bib shorts I have used before, disappear, and stay disappeared on long rides. One seam on each leg, no weird grippers, a supportive, elastic chamois, ventilated well-cut bib material. Nothing weird to report at all. Lusciously understated, yet reflective branding on the legs. Mates well with an assortment of leg and knee warmers. Lovely.

I notice when I'm NOT riding in my Ritte Race bibs. Other shorts make me feel old and broken, make me curse and spit- Ritte Race bibs make me feel 20 years younger. Excellent compression and stretch on the near seamless leg fabric injects extra Class and Panache straight into my suitcase of courage. Ritte, encouraging the very beating heart of the sport.
Seriously, buy two pairs and your life will be even better.

Great ride, power transfer was good as well. Fast shipping and communication was great.

So clever and funny!
Unfortunately, will not convert water to beer!

A t-shirt that reminds me of LA and Flanders wins the day, everyday. I smile every time I look at it.
Brilliant design, as usual.

I can ride this thing anywhere! In love with the smooth ride quality and responsiveness on rough terrain, and amazed at how fast it actually is on the road. On asphalt it feels like I’m floating. The Satyr Ti is just plain awesome.

It’s awesome when you can reach back to a great company and get excellent customer service! I’m so grateful for RITTE and their dedication to their customers.

Love the cap! Ritte has awesome styling on their bikes/kits/caps, just wish they had some of their jerseys in my size in stock.

Well built frame, striking colour scheme. Very happy with my purchase.

In a world of heavy disc frames with integrated stems/handlebars and ticking calipers, the Ace is a breath of fresh air. Light, stiff, beautiful, and simple.

Ritte also has some of the best customer service i’ve experienced.

Super lightweight and stretchy, confotms to any head size. Not scratchy which can be the case with some caps. Last but not least, it looks great!

I don't even really know where to start. We could go over the ride / performance first, since that's likely why you're looking at this. It's near perfect - the only void being left unfilled for the bike of the future, not yet made, using what steel can deliver. The geometry is legendary - perfect road snap for cutting corners, and angles that make singletrack feel like you're tracing a line with a sharpie. Easy, nimble, and aggressively confidence inspiring. The bike feels alive, like it's along for the ride with you. It's just fun. I've never ridden a bike with this much personality. 725 is perfect for this bike - the Enve fork matched with whatever hoops you want to throw on it - have changed the way I ride. I ride this bike for all my rides. My daily city spins (asphalt/mixed), my weekend long rides (asphalt, long climbs), and with a wheel switch to 40s, I've recently bike packed with this bike - feeling the same confidence and speed, fully loaded with gear, flying up chunky logging roads. I can't say enough good things about the ride quality. Feels like a magic carpet, feels dialed. The ONLY thing to note here. It's not a 15lbs super-six-evo. But it's not supposed to be. It lacks a touch of acceleration, if you're chasing an attack - but it makes up for that in strong top-speed. Honestly I can't believe we're talking about speed, with this bike, but hey, it delivers. Looks: lol it looks so good. RItte in general: These dudes are real people, and real riders. Elijah gave me the greatest customer service I've ever experienced. Something this personal would make you think I was spending $12K on a custom geo. From lightening fast turnaround, to calling me to talk components, and geometry, Elijah helped me out, and communicated everything, every step of the way. When I had HUB issues, he sent videos so I could repair, then, ultimately got me a new HUB, all with full communication. You are going to get your dream bike worry free. Get this bike, I know you kinda want it. Send it.

Love my Ace. It is, as advertised, very stiff and the power transfer is noticeably better than on any other bike I have owned. However it is also very comfortable on long rides; I spent 8 hours on it on Saturday and felt great afterwards. It also descends, handles and corners beautifully and the stiffness makes it a great climber. I can highly recommend this frame and it is worth the cost.
