Have any of you chaps got a Ribble Stealth?

Comments

  • Saw one in the shop last week ... it looked really beautiful.

    It was the nicest bike there!
  • Hi, I think I will get one with Sram rival, it just looks so good, but no one seems to have ridden one!
  • The one in the shop has SRAM Force really lovely!
  • Don't suppose you saw the size of the bike in the shop and price.
  • Is this a made up conversation and by any chance are both Prince Buster and col.sarah employee's of a certain Preston-based bike shop?

    The whole forum seems to be full of suspicious, set-up love-ins tonight. Buying advice is really creepy.
    I smell rats.

    Anyway, the Ribble Stealth is crap.

    I really don't care. I'm building a Principia.
  • It's good to see the old Berk lives up to his name, i really am interested in the stealth, hopefully col . sarah doesn't work Ribble but it's no big deal, it's still a beauty!
  • I am a middle aged doctor with more money than sense.

    David Cameron is trying to alter the ratio however...... :(

    I have a Ribble Gran Fondo .... i went in to buy a turbo training tyre and had a look at the bikes. Interesting to see that my Gran Fondo from 18 months ago is now the Ribbelle. The current Gran Fondo looks nothing like mine!

    Stealth : Not sure about the size. The bikes in the shop are always speced to the max I think for the photoshoots?? It had Zipp wheels ....

    I hope I have cleared my name but if not I may be in need of a job soon. Do you think Ribble need a paediatrician?

    I'm not sure from this evidence. You've failed to sell one to me, but then, I am building a Principia. :wink:

    Can people not put threads on here unless it is actually "your bike"!
    It’s the most beautiful sport in the world but it’s governed by ***ts who have turned it into a crock of ****.

    So you got the elite.... I've ridden my cr1 right through winter, just wash it down after you've been out and you'll be fine
