Ritchey bicycle components

Ritchey Design is a legendary name in the cycling world, founded by Tom Ritchey in the early 1970s. Tom Ritchey was a pioneer of the mountain bike movement in Northern California, originally building frames by hand before expanding into high-performance components. The brand is synonymous with 'Ritchey Logic,' a design philosophy that focuses on lightweight, durable, and functionally superior cycling parts.

While the brand maintains its creative and engineering roots in the United States, the majority of its manufacturing takes place in Taiwan. Taiwan is globally recognized for its high-end precision engineering in the bicycle industry, allowing Ritchey to produce advanced carbon and alloy components at scale. The company remains an independent entity, steered by the vision of its founder, ensuring that every product reflects the heritage of the sport while incorporating modern technological advancements.

Today, Ritchey products are distributed globally, serving professional athletes and enthusiasts alike. The brand remains dedicated to steel frame building and innovative component design, standing as one of the few independently owned legacy brands in the cycling industry.
