Ragley is back for 2020 with a range of hardtail mountain bikes and gravel bikes for various budgets and intentions.
The 2020 Ragley bike range features 11 chromoly and aluminium hardtail bikes including the classic and award-winning Blue Pig and two drop bar options.
All the bikes come with a five-year warranty and lifetime crash replacement. The mountain bikes all feature Maxxis tyres in EXO+ guise, and dropper seatpost lengths are sensibly selected according to frame size. Frame-only options are also available for every bike.

Trig Adventure
Ragley’s adventure bike is aptly named the Trig. It has a 4130 chromoly frame and a carbon fork, making it “lightweight and supple enough to provide comfort on longer trail rides while robust and stiff enough to take some serious abuse”, according to Ragley.
Wide 2.1in tyre clearance allows for a range of wheel setup options (it comes with beefy tyres on 700c wheels), and it, of course, features plenty of bottle cage and luggage mounts for your next big journey into the unknown.
