Ritchey bicycle owners and appreciation

Probably just another Logic to some but I never get bored of these...

Super nice. Always surprised that more people don't HHS these frames though. I mean they're borin' old grey, and made by a company that's famous for ridiculous paint jobs on production bikes and components like full-carbon bullmoose bars. Just feels like more people would be emboldened by that, but I guess not.

Bought a frame on eBay years ago advertised as a Ritchey. The dropouts are Richey logo'd and the seattube widens at the BB area- what should i look for to be able to confirm it is one?

EDIT-

It is an MTB frame.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and anyone with a logic will of had something garish and just likes to be smug and content now.

What bar is that?

That could be a serotta

Not sure, sorry - nicked the image from here http://www.bikeforums.net/18060955-post21348.html

The Ritchey site now has the four heritage colours listed as available (+$450) for the RRL as well as most other framesets.

I've wanted to paint a RL with that yellow/orange sunset fade for years.

mine looks similar. is so awesome to ride.

This is so, so good.

Are these actually SPD cleat compatible? Stories on older models are conflicting. Or should I not bother and go down the A520/600 route?

No they are not, they need special cleats. Their MTB pedals are compatible with shimano SPD cleats.

OK, thanks. How about Ritchey cleats into SPD pedals, does this work?

Yes that works.
I use Ritchey cleats and WCS Micro pedals on my singlespeed and Shimano PD-A530 on the MTB.

I've all but bought this in my tiny mind brain... Is 900 quid a good price for it?

Gosh, that's nice.

900 for the whole build? Hell yeah...

Yeah, I bought it. Felt bad for the poor bloke. Fuck me it's hot.

No more drop bar dirt rides for you?

Oh don't worry, there's still gonna be plenty of those!

Lucky bastard. Looks amazing.

I've one of those waiting around to be built up with an SLX groupset making for a road and mountain pair of Ritcheys.
