The Helium X provides pro-riders with all the performance they need but is also an exceptional option for the aspiring road cyclist who has their eyes on the podium. Ideally suited to any rider who wants to achieve more from their performance output, wants a climb with greater efficiency, sprint with outstanding efficiency and soar past the race-pack with style.
It has a Shimano Ultegra 11 speed drivetrain within its arsenal, so it cranks up the power with efficiency and shifts through the gears with precision. Plus, it rolls on the superb Forza RC23 race wheels and Vittoria Zaffiro Pro tyres that offer fast-rolling performance and exceptional grip in all weather conditions.

Flanders, the Flemish region of Belgium is infamous for serving up the harshest cycling conditions where driving rain, cobbled non-category climbs, snow and ice are the norm for its 6,000 racing clubs. This place, the pounding heart of a passionate cycling nation where the most revered Spring Classics unfold, is the cold steel anvil where flesh and bone are forged into the greatest racers of all time. This is Belgium, home to Ridley Bikes, and it is here where our products are engineered, hammered into raw form by the roads themselves, and where we refine them in competition. This is Ridley. We are Belgium.

If you are on the change over between sizes both options will fit. Racers and experienced riders would usually select a smaller size as this offers quicker handing. A larger bike offers more stability and is more suited to new and intermediate riders.
