Ridley Falcn 105 Di2

• The Falcn Essential builds on the success of the Falcn RS.The performance geometry and tyre clearance of 34 millimetres are identical, and the diffuser fork crown and universal derailleur hanger (UDH) are also retained.
• This geometry was carefully designed by Ridley's product developers with a focus on speed, stability and responsiveness. The head tube length is shorter than that of the Noah Fast and Helium SLX, providing a more aggressive riding position. The bottom bracket is located lower because it has been adapted to the ability to ride with thicker tyres. so the rider maintains excellent control.
• The points of difference are in the round seatpost on the Falcn Essential (versus a D-shaped seatpost on the Falcn RS) and the carbon composition. Nevertheless, the frame of the Falcn Essential still weighs only 990 grams.
• Tyre Clearance
  The Falcn is designed around 28 mm tyres and has a maximum tyre clearance of 34 mm, providing greater tyre clearance than the standard maximum of 28 mm found on most current road bikes. This allows for more comfort and reduced rolling resistance, as wider tires can be used at lower pressures.
• Aero-To-Weight
  The focus in the road bike market used to be on stiffness versus weight, but has recently shifted to the balance between aero and weight. Ridley decided to combine the best of both worlds with the Falcn, meaning it has been made as aerodynamic as possible without sacrificing the bike's weight. The Falcn has a similar aero performance to the Noah Fast and weighs just 990g (in size Medium), meaning cyclists no longer have to choose between lightweight and aero.
• Diffuser Fork Crown
  The fork crown has an integrated diffuser to reduce drag. The airflow passes more easily through fork crown while extra energy is added to it. The result is that the airflow passes the downtube more easily without pushing the bike back. At the same time there is less drag in the area behind the fork and headtube. Less resistance, more speed!
• Universal Derailleur Hanger
  The universal derailleur hanger (UDH) is the new standard in the cycling world. Not only is this derailleur hanger compatible with all modern shifting groups, it also protects against derailleur breakage and chain drops. In mountain biking, UDH has long been very common and Ridley is bringing the technology to other segments as well.
• Removable Front Derailleur Clamp
  The innovative removable front derailleur clamp ensures a sleek,
  streamlined appearance when using a 1x setup. In collaboration with Wolf Tooth, Ridley developed a custom chainguide and chain catcher perfectly tailored to fit their frames. To maintain a clean and polished look, they’ve also designed a specialised cover to seamlessly replace the clamp when it’s not in use.
