Introducing the Ritchey Ultra Frameset: The Legendary Dirt Slayer Returns

If there’s one thing Tom Ritchey knows, it’s dirt. The Ritchey Ultra frameset, an iconic design from the 1980s, returns to prove that good design truly withstands the test of time. This latest iteration occupies a unique ride space, appealing to riders who demand specific characteristics: from cross-country enthusiasts looking to get rowdy and go big, to enduro riders lusting for some all-mountain shredding. The Ultra is a rough and rugged trail master that doesn’t know when to quit.

Designed around a 120mm travel fork and a super stable Boost 148mm rear spacing, the Ultra's true versatility shines with its wheel compatibility. Throw on some 29ers for trail-smashing XC riding, or saddle up 27.5+ wheels with tires up to 2.8" for no-holds-barred shredding. This frameset is built to empower your most adventurous rides, representing a unique blend of Ritchey's deep dirt heritage and modern trail demands.

The Ritchey Ultra frameset is the ultimate choice for riders who demand a versatile, robust, and supremely fun hardtail that confidently bridges the gap between aggressive cross-country and all-mountain shredding.
