What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've built a few bikes around this Noah 3. 0 frameset, and what stands out is how impressively stiff and fast it feels when you're really pushing. The aero shaping gives it that wind-cheating ride, but the geometry keeps it responsive and predictable in corners. Whether you're using an integrated cockpit or a standard bar and stem, the setup stays clean and race-ready."We reach for the Ridley Noah 3. 0 Frameset when we want a platform that embodies the pure speed and sharp handling of a true race bike. Ridley builds on the heritage of the Noah Fast, giving this frameset the same aggressive geometry and aerodynamic shaping, but in a package that's more versatile and accessible for riders building their dream road machine. From fast group rides to threshold training sessions, it delivers the efficiency and responsiveness we rely on to stay ahead of the pack. The Noah 3. 0 uses Ridley's Essential Carbon layup, providing a stiff, lightweight feel that amplifies every watt we put into the pedals. Aerodynamic tube profiles reduce drag across varied wind angles, and the 34mm tire clearance lets us choose between race-day slicks or slightly larger tires for rougher roads. With compatibility for both mechanical and electronic drivetrains and a removable front derailleur clamp, the frameset adapts easily to our preferred setup. Whether we're refining a race build or crafting a fast, reliable training bike, the Noah 3. 0 gives us a competitive edge on every ride. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
