FRAMESET OUTBACK V4 BLACK/TIE DYE X-SMALL - (97052817001)

RITCHEY OUTBACK V4 (& Outback Breakaway V3)
Tom Ritchey rides about 10,000 miles (16,000 km) per year, and most of that is off-road. Combine that with his  more than 40 years of designing and building bicycles, and it’s no wonder the Outback has become an icon in the gritty world of gravel and adventure bikes.

Standout features for this edition of the 2025 Outback include internal routing for a dropper post, a rack mount on the fork crown, and internal dynamo routing. Aurora and Winter Sage colorways offer riders more options to style their ride beyond the bike’s existing practical and adaptable features, but the “big” news is, this Outback also comes in size XXL.

Rack and fender mounts help to keep things dry and expand the load-carrying capacity for longer bikepacking adventures, while clearance for 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tires opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The frame accepts flat-mount disc calipers, and the new all-carbon fiber Ritchey Adventure Fork with multi-purpose mounts on the legs gives you more places to stow the supplies you gather at the last cafe.

Painstakingly TIG-welded with proprietary triple-butted Ritchey Logic steel tubing, the Outback frame delivers the legendary Ritchey ride quality that’s resilient over the harshest terrain and delightfully responsive when you want to open it up.

Road, off-road, trail, expedition, you name it…the new Ritchey Outback is designed do it all.
