Any real life experience of either the Ribble Gravel or Ragley Trig? Can’t pick between the two, specs seem pretty similar, only difference is the wait for the Ribble, expected February.
Any input gratefully received.
Just finished building my Trig up this weekend, first ride yesterday.
Can't really comment on the comparison or the stock complete build so here's a photo instead 😜
Pretty sure there was a write up of the Trig in one of the 'lockdown' editions. Was it by Amanda? Anyway, IIRC it seemed to be pretty universally positive!
I got a 2021 Trig and think it's ace. I much prefer the Shimano GRX to the Sram Rival on my old Marin and compared to that bike the Ragley is really nimble. The stock tyres are great off road but drag on road I changed for some slicker ones as I ride plenty of road and light off.
They are not the biggest bikes so size up if in doubt. I changed the stem and bar as I have broad shoulders.
The paint is lovely in the flesh, really deep and seems great quality. All the finishing kit is functional but perfectly fine. Oh, and the saddle is actually a Charge Spoon with Ragley covering.
I've not ridden my MTB since I got the Trig so it must be doing something right!
Thanks for the info, the Trig is a lovely looking bike
