Gravel is the new kid on the block and is rapidly growing in popularity. Is there a better combination than "exploring" and "cycling"? Ridley thinks not. Ridley makes a bike that makes a great mix out of it. A coincidence? Not in their opinion. With a gravel bike, you can tackle 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. These were people who travelled a lot and had all kinds of adventures, then turned them into stories about knights and even love stories. After returning to their village, they told the inhabitants about their adventures. There were three genres for this. The most common was "Kanzo/Canzo". In this way, the troubadours moved whole communities, people hung on their lips.

Just like the troubadours, they want to inspire their Ridley riders to get out and ride their bikes. To discover new places or rediscover supposedly familiar places.

The Kanzo A is the aluminum gravel bike for adventurous riders looking for an affordable solution. This bike is arguably their most versatile frame platform: for everyday use, the bike can be equipped with mudguards, on weekends it invites you to explore gravel roads, and it's also well equipped for the occasional big tour with panniers. With this bike, anything is possible.

Thanks to the stable geometry, this bike is a dream to ride on long, straight trails. The frame is compatible with 650B wheels (650 x 50) or 700C wheels (700 x 42) and has a 12 mm thru axle in the frame and fork.
