Description
Ridgeback Voyage, Steel Touring Bike, 2012
Long Distange Steel Tourer.The Ridgeback Voyage complete's their touring/audax collection nicely as a steel framed, Shimano equipped long distance affordable tourer.The quality Reynolds 520 tubing dampens road vibration much better than aluminium, resulting in a noticably smoother, comfortable ride and a greatly reduced likelyhood of numb hands and behind.Includes all the essentials you'd expect to find in a touring bike, like the mudguards, rack and comfort geometry with Shimano gears, Tektro brakes and a nice big Blackburn frame fitting pump.
Customer Review from the Ridgeback website by Duncan Abell:"Why did it take you so long to create a sensible steel touring bike? The Horizon is exactly what I've been looking for. Reynolds tubing, top of the range Shimano and with the kind of ride that us long distance expedition types really enjoy. Congratulations Ridgeback."I think he likes it.
