"What Is the Ridley Triton Fast? Ridley's engineers partnered with the Aero Performance Lab in Beringen to validate every millimeter of the Triton Fast. The team pored over tube profiles, cockpit design, and integrated storage. According to Ridley, the frameset (frame + fork) is 325 grams lighter than the leading competitor's flagship triathlon frame, weighing a claimed 1,800g total. The result? A faster, more energy-efficient platform built to stay quick even deep into an Ironman marathon."
"Doesn't Ridley already have a time-trial bike? Yes - but. The Ridley Dean Fast Disc is the brand's go-to Time Trial design. That means short(er) distances and more focus on absolute power. The Ridley Triton Fast is about balance and long-distance triathlon events where the demands are different than a TT - especially when you have a marathon coming right after the ride."
"The Triton Fast uses progressive triathlon-specific geometry, placing the rider closer to the bottom bracket for optimal power transfer and control. Its fork flip chips let athletes fine-tune steering behavior for stability on flat courses or sharper handling on technical terrain. Combine that with a highly adjustable mono-riser cockpit, and the Triton Fast gives triathletes near-infinite fit possibilities. Plus, all adjustable fit touch points are adjustable with just two bolts for easy travel and setup."
Ridley's Triton Fast is a fully integrated, aerodynamic triathlon bike developed with Ironman 70.3 World Champion Jelle Geens and validated by the Aero Performance Lab in Beringen. The frameset claims a 1,800g total weight, 325 grams lighter than a leading competitor's flagship triathlon frame, aiming for an energy-efficient platform that stays quick into Ironman marathons. The design prioritizes long-course balance over pure TT power, with progressive triathlon-specific geometry placing the rider closer to the bottom bracket for better power transfer. Fork flip chips tune steering, a mono-riser cockpit provides wide fit adjustability, and all touch points adjust with two bolts. The bike adds integrated hydration and modular storage for long-distance needs.
