About this product
The Ritchey Outback Steel Frameset is a gravel and adventure bike frame designed for unisex adults. It features internal routing and is compatible with 700c wheels. This X-Large, blue steel frame includes a 68mm English bottom bracket shell and is built for durability and versatility on varied terrain, catering to long-distance riders and those seeking a robust platform for exploration.
Our take
The Ritchey Outback Steel Frameset is truly built for adventure. The steel construction, combined with internal routing, speaks to its durability and clean aesthetics, which is great for a gravel bike that will see tough conditions. An X-Large frame size and 700c wheel compatibility make it suitable for taller riders looking for a stable, comfortable ride over long distances. While steel frames are known for their ride quality, they do come with a weight penalty, noted at 27.0000 pounds for the frameset. However, for a dedicated gravel or adventure rig, the robust nature and classic feel often outweigh the extra grams, providing a compliant and dependable ride.
