Ritchey Outback V3 disc gravel frameset 650B/700C Di2 granite grey/snow white

Tom Ritchey logs around 10,000 miles (16,000 km) annually, primarily off-road. With over 50 years of experience in designing and building bicycles, it's no surprise that the Outback has become a standout icon in the rugged realm of gravel and adventure bikes.

Now available in the striking Granite & Snow colorway, the Outback features numerous practical and versatile elements that empower riders to seek epic experiences beyond the end of the road. The inclusion of rack and fender mounts helps keep gear dry and increases load capacity for extended bikepacking trips, while accommodating 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tires opens up a myriad of possibilities. Enhancing the Outback’s functionality, the all-carbon fiber Ritchey Adventure Fork comes with multi-purpose mounts, providing extra storage options for supplies collected along the way.

Crafted with precision, the Outback is TIG-welded using proprietary triple-butted Ritchey Logic steel tubing, now featuring an updated one-piece truss design for flat mount brakes. This design maintains the stiffness and strength of previous mounts while significantly reducing the weight of the chainstays. Whether for bikepacking, road cycling, off-roading, trail riding, or expeditions, the Ritchey Outback is built to handle it all.
