The Ridgeback Element is the perfect all-round bike for town, country and beyond. It offers a fast and smooth ride thanks to a lightweight aluminium frame, fork and speedy 35mm tyres.

A wide range of 27 gears mean you'll never struggle on steep climbs and you can spin at speed on faster, flatter sections. Shimano Acera components are hardwearing and reliable, giving smooth shifting every time.

Shimano hydraulic disc brakes also give assured and powerful stopping performance in all conditions, operated from a riser-handlebar that allows a more comfortable and upright position.

Mounts for mudguards and racks add versatility, allowing you to turn the bike into a load-lugger or wet-weather commuter.
