The advantages of a ‘one-by’, now available in our configurator

The advantages of a ‘one-by’, now available in our configurator

In recent years, more and more riders in the peloton have been using a so-called ‘one-by’ setup. While this evolution has long been established in the off-road segment, it is still relatively new and innovative on the road. Nevertheless, the system is rapidly gaining popularity. Riders from Uno-X also regularly opted for a single chainring setup this spring, made possible by their switch to SRAM. Do you believe in the benefits of a one-by? Then you can now choose the new SRAM Force XPLR (1x13) or SRAM Red XPLR (1x13) in our Noah Fast configurator.

25 mm, 28 mm, 30 mm or wider: how do you choose the ideal tire width for your road bike?

There was a time when road cyclists swore by tires that were 21 or 23 millimeters wide. In recent years, however, that trend has been completely overturned. The standard first shifted toward 25 millimeters and then to 28 millimeters. Nowadays, you increasingly see 30 millimeters and even 32 millimeters in the peloton. We outline this evolution and explain how Ridley responded to this phenomenon early on.
