To build in comfort, we’ve worked meticulously on our tubing design as well as our materials layup to create the ultimate hardtail that cruises at high speeds over the most arduous terrain. Internal cable routing keeps the cables clean, while giving the bike that tidy look.
Compatible with both mechanical and electronic shifting.
About the Ignite SLX
The Ignite SLX is Ridley’s brand-new hardtail mountainbike, made for those who are looking for a race-ready, high-performance machine. The frame weight has been trimmed by 160 grams compared to the Ignite SL, which makes it the lightest mountainbike frame in our history.
The 148-mm Boost rear spacing creates a very stiff rear triangle, while the 89.5-mm-wide bottom bracket ensures maximum power transfer. Not a single watt is wasted! What’s more, the thin 27.2-mm seat post provides that extra bit of compliance and comfort.
With an up-to-date XC geometry, the Ignite SLX now competes with market-leading hardtails. The combination of a slacker head tube angle, increased fork offset and short chain stays results in improved high-speed control while offering nimble handling to make sure you can nail that next corner.
Compatible with 1x and 2x mechanical and electronic groupsets. Also compatible with an internally routed dropper post.
