Wow, the color on the Ridley is phenomenal! So much better than the all black bikes that are popular nowadays

So with the madone 9 now built, i was at first a little hesitant to build up the Ridley. Since i had all the parts anyways, i went ahead and wrenched away.

The results come to 5850g for the complete build sans bottle cages but inclusive of pedals.

This is with Di2 and clinchers.

Seems like Lotto-Soudal got inspired by your bike. Riding as Lotto-Fix-it in Paris-Nice with this bike: https://www.instagram.com/p/BCkhk7ZM_yK/ Maybe a bit lighter color but hard to say on a picture.
