Ritchey bicycle owners and appreciation

Yes, just got it home.

Anyone know if the Garden City frame is being stocked in the UK?

That has limited numbers so it's probably safer to contact a dealer like Seabass or Woods Cyclery to try and reserve a frame.

@sohi have you built up that montebello yet?

I have been attaching bits to it slowly while waiting for some small parts. I might have it done next week or so

I am slightly obsessed with these and would love to get my hands on one very much... don't think it's going to happen though, maybe will have to keep an eye out for second hand one day!

I have a Garden City frame coming that I’ll use for long distances and audax. The question is a silver build or black? I’m very torn between silver post, stem ,bars and chain set or black. The saddle I have ear marked is a flite.

I'm offically joining the club today! Outback winging it's way to me now via Woods Cyclery

Personally I'd go for black, but I've seen a few nice builds lately with silver everything!

I always think the Ritchey frames look great with silver finishing kit. I have silver and black on my outback

The sample Montebello they had built, I think that was silver up top also and looked lovely

Do you have more pictures?? @sohi

I am away for a month but it's assembled. The mudguards need adjusting and the finishing kit is a placeholder for now.

That looks mega

Very nice! Good combination of black and silver parts. Looking forward to hear how it rides

That does look nice, and agree they do look good with silver parts.

Found this one from Instagram with black parts too that doesn't look too shabby

Did you get this? Would love to see build / progress if so - as above, I would love one and am still gazing longingly at the details for them even though realistically I'm not getting one any time soon!
