RITCHEY COMP ZETA GX GRAVEL WHEELS
While the Zeta GX wheels might be a newer product for Ritchey, one could argue their development has been in process for more than 50 years. Tom, often together with his mentor Jobst Brandt and other friends, has been blazing trails and riding rough stuff since the early 1970s. Riding dirt is literally in Tom's blood.
Directly inspired by the reliability, versatility and top performance of the original Ritchey Zeta wheels, the new Comp Zeta GX wheelset is designed to especially shine in the gravel. These hand-built wheels are tubeless-ready and feature forged disc hubs with sealed bearings and six-bolt rotor mounts – and a 4-pawl engagement system integrated with the freehub body. The rims offer a wide 25mm inner diameter, so they'll nicely fit wider tires for gravel, and they're laced with 28 sturdy spokes.
Tom Ritchey doesn't carry a mobile phone when he rides. Nor does he bother with the hassle of following GPS coordinates on a cycling computer. A firm believer in self-reliance, one of Tom's guiding design principals is that every Ritchey product needs to be reliable enough to get you home. Designed for durability and to perform in rough and rugged conditions in remote locations or close to home, and an incredible value for their price, the Comp Zeta GX wheels are built to be strong, dependable, and ready to rip, carve, and cruise through all your gravel adventures. And they’re reliable enough to make sure you can do it all again tomorrow.

RITCHEY
RITCHEY DESIGN HISTORY Over 40 Years Of Design Innovation Tom Ritchey is one-of-a-kind. He continues to juggle his duties as president and lead designer of our company, which now has products distributed in over 40 countries – and he still logs at least 10,000 miles per year all over the world. Inspiration often comes to him while out on a ride, generating ideas that he then processes as three-dimensional design images – in his head. This is followed by the creation of initial concept models, many of which he creates by fillet brazing pieces or scraps of frame tubing. It all comes naturally to a guy who taught himself to build frames as a teenager, and who designed some of the burgeoning mountain bike industry’s first frames and components back in the 1970’s. Every year Tom guides our R&D efforts in pursuit of both subtle improvements to existing products or large-scale advances leading to new ones. Over 40 Years Of Testing & Validation Drawings and finite element analysis are great tools, but we are always eager to prove our new designs in the real world. Starting with fatigue cycle testing, we strive for at least 2x the standard mandated by CEN (the European Committee which determines minimum safety standards for bicycles and components sold in Europe). We apply the same stringent standards to impact testing, meaning that before a proposed design finds its way onto a tester’s bike, it has already been proven structurally – and then some. In 2006, we aligned ourselves with a respected German test lab in order to verify our own testing results. This outside authentication keeps us honest and ensures product releases meet the highest standards. Once a product clears machine testing, prototype samples endure rigorous use by amateur and professional riders alike, including our sponsored athletes around the world. By the time you put it on your bike, it has passed a global testing and approval process second to none. Over 40 Years Of Sponsorship & Unrivaled Performance If a bicycle or component can be successfully raced at the highest levels of the sport, there’s no doubt those bikes and parts will perform nobly during more mortal cycling pursuits.Thus, Ritchey has a rich heritage of supporting riders who have won world championships, Olympic medals, national championships, Tour de France stages, cyclocross championships and more. Since the beginning, Ritchey has supported these successful teams and riders with the understanding that the best racers deserve the best products, and such a relationship is a two-way street. Not only do these athletes benefit from the absolute best, but they also help develop and refine Ritchey products. Their insight, suggestions and feedback are invaluable for the bikes and components you ride every day. Ritchey continues to sponsor and support mountain bike, pro road and cyclocross men and women around the world, and at the highest levels. We’re also proud to support the adventurers out there – the people who ride purely for the experience of it all, without all of the fanfare. Their stories are just as important as world championship stripes.Aucklander's Same Day Delivery
