Gravel is the new kid on the block and its popularity is rapidly increasing. Is there a better combination than “discovering” and “cycling”? We don’t think so. Ridley makes a bike that excellently combines both. Coincidence? Not for us. With a gravel bike, you can master any terrain, at your own pace. But why the name “Kanzo”?
Kanzo, or canzo, is a word that dates back to the times of the troubadours, who were singers and poets in the Middle Ages. They traveled widely and experienced all kinds of adventures, which they turned into stories about knights or even love stories. On return to their home villages, they would tell the inhabitants about their adventures using three different genres. The most commonly used of these was a “kanzo/canzo”. Their stories moved entire communities, who hung on their every word.
Just like the troubadours, we want to encourage our Ridley riders to go out and ride their bikes, to discover new places or rediscover what they thought they already knew.
The Kanzo Speed is uniquely designed to be effectively used as a road racer or gravel bike.
Its comfortable geometry makes it ideal for long road rides, as well as for smoothing out jarring off-road terrain. Further increasing its comfort is its 34mm tire clearance and extra room for fenders.
With the Kanzo Speed all-road bike, you have the freedom to swiftly transition between on and off-road. See a trail that looks cool? Go ahead and check it out, knowing that the bike smoothly adapts to whatever terrain you choose.
This bike is also ideal for extended adventures! Simply mount bike bags, head out and explore - at your own pace. Once you take it for a spin, you will never leave home without it! It truly is that much fun to ride!
