Off-road racing bikes: liberation and riding fun even on unpaved roads!

Is off-road the new road?

Actually, Tom Ritchey was graveling long before the term became so popular.

The OUTBACK is Ritchey's successful interpretation of a modern gravel bike.

- Ritchey's extensive experience with steel frames combined with updated geometry and construction
- here too, steel is the preferred pipe material
- Frame handcrafted as always to the highest Ritchey standards
- triple butted and heat-treated Ritchey Logic CrMoly tube sets
- Ritchey Adventure Disc carbon fork with multi-purpose, rack and fender mounts
- a longer wheelbase than the Swiss Cross ensures smooth running and a lower bottom bracket for stability and optimal cornering, yet high enough to easily overcome bumps
- more tire clearance: up to 50 mm


Frame including fork, WCS drop-in headset including expander and ahead cap

Frame sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL


We would be happy to build your dream bike!


Tom Ritchey rides about 10,000 miles (16,000 km) per year, and most of that is off-road. Combine that with his more than 40 years of designing and building bicycles, and it's no wonder the Outback has become an icon in the gritty world of gravel and adventure bikes.

Updated for 2020, the new Outback now sports several practical and adaptable features that offer riders the ability to chase epic ride experiences beyond the end of the road and the end of the day. Rack and fender mounts help to keep things dry and expand the load-carrying capacity for longer bikepacking adventures, while clearance for 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tires opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The frame accepts flat-mount disc calipers, and the new all-carbon fiber Ritchey Adventure Fork with multi-purpose mounts on the legs gives you more places to stow the supplies you gather at the last cafe.

Painstakingly TIG-welded with proprietary triple-butted Ritchey Logic steel tubing, the Outback frame delivers the legendary Ritchey ride quality that's resilient over the harshest terrain and delightfully responsive when you want to open it up.

Bikepacking, road, off-road, trail, expedition, you name it…the new Ritchey Outback is designed to do it all.
