About Kanzo A
The Kanzo A is the aluminum Gravel bike for adventurous riders looking for a cost-effective solution. This bike is probably the most versatile frame platform: the bike can be equipped with mudguards for everyday use, on weekends it invites you to discover gravel roads and it is also well equipped for the occasional long tour with panniers. Anything is possible with this bike.
Thanks to its stable geometry, this bike is ideal for long, straight trails. The frame is compatible with 650B (650 x 50) or 700C (700 x 42) wheels and has a 12mm axle in the frame and fork.
About the Kanzo range
Gravel is the new one in the federation and enjoys rapidly increasing popularity. Is there a better combination than "discovering" and "cycling"? The developers at Ridley don't believe it. Ridley makes a bike that makes a great mix. A coincidence? With a Gravel bike, you can ride any terrain at your own pace. But why the name "Kanzo"?
Kanzo, or Canzo, is a term that goes back to the times of the troubadours - singers and poets in the Middle Ages. They were people who travelled a lot and had all sorts of adventures to make stories about knights and even love stories. After returning to their village, they told the inhabitants about their adventures. There were three genres. The most common was "Kanzo/Canzo". So the troubadours moved whole communities, the people hung on their lips.
Disc brakes
Disc brakes are one of the latest pioneering developments in road cycling. They give you that extra bit of safety every time you ride, because you know you can stop immediately if you need to. They are equally reliable in all weather conditions. The ease of braking is a real plus, especially when your hands are ice-cold and hardly able to move. Just a light pull on the brake lever to reduce speed. And because no brake pads rub on the rim flanks during braking, wear on the rims is also reduced. Fortunately, this increases the mileage of your wheelset.
