INTRODUCTION

We’ve been at it for years. But we started again. A blank sheet of paper in a fresh notebook in the winter of 2009. Going back to our roots, riding with mates, starting from scratch and in the 18months since, we’ve not stopped. Ragley 2011 product is even fresher, even more applicable, even more FUN. Mud and grit, sweat and sweets, cuts, scars, nettle rash, and the occasional broken bone. But the bikes are still there. Laughing at us as we fail that technical step down turn, that climb past the tree, that left turn out of the rut and down the bank. We’ve spread wide in our short time. Riders from the USA, Phillippines, New Zealand, even Mytholmroyd and with better worldwide distribution for the year ahead, we hope to spread wider. Our new models grow from what we started. We’ve increased our focus on steel frames, with the addition of three more models. We’ve massively updated the current Blue Pig model to push it on even further ahead of anything else that’s around. We’ve partnered with acclaimed tubing brand True Temper to create a new interpretation of their OX Platinium tubeset, in our own Fathead externally butted confi guration. We hope you like what we’ve done. We’ve certainly enjoyed bringing it to this point. Now it’s your turn.

Modern classic long travel hardball. When it appeared in 2009 it was groundbreaking. Now for 2011, we’ve refi ned every single tube and componentto improve it even more, but the geometry is unchanged - with 140/150mm fork compatiblity. Custom butted Fathead top and downtimes allow us to remove gussets for cleaner lines, higher strength and lower weight. A tapered seat tube gives you “dropper” compatibility with it’s 30.9mm seatpost size. The headtube uses the 44mm ID standard, allowing regular, tapered or 1.5in forks to fi t - is this a steel frame fi rst? Our unique 3-fi nger-bridge gets investment cast in chromoly, and matched to Fathead chainstays, externally butted near the BB for extra strength and stiffness. ISCG mounts get added, and the BB’s machined inside to save weight. Win. Bolt on cable guides, fastened with stainless bolts, new profi le rear stays for less weight, a better ride and more lateral stiffness round out the features.Blue Pig is a blend of DH stability with uphill tenacity. It’ll climb and descend with such contradiction, you’ll be left scratching your head and grinning a lot.

True Temper OX Platinum model of our classic Blue Pig. How do we improve on an improved Blue Pig? We go to the best steel manufacturers in the world, and work with them on some new tubing. It’s our new Fathead tubing, but made for us in True Temper OX Platinum - the ultimate thermophillic steel tubeset - one of those that gets stronger when welded. The extra strength let’s us slim the walls down a little, saving weight and improving ride over regular chromoly. Other frame details remain the same - a tapered seat tube gives you “dropper” compatibility with it’s 30.9mm seatpost size. The headtube uses the 44mm ID standard, allowing regular, tapered or 1.5in forks to fi t - is this a steel frame fi rst?We didn’t stop there. Our unique 3-fi nger-bridge gets investment cast in chromoly, and matched to Fathead chainstays, externally butted near the BB for extra strength and stiffness, and we’re offering an option with DMR Swopout dropouts so you can run Maxle, or QR. Bolt on cable guides, fastened with stainless bolts, new profi le rear stays for less weight, a better ride and more lateral stiffness round out the features. Blue Pig X adds to the Ragley feel by losing weight and gaining ride quality. It’s amazing.

Piglet - Have we gone sensible? 120mm forks? No! Just a little more mainstream.We’ll admit that some of our designs are a little “out there”. We’ve had people used to steep head angled XC bikes jump on our frames and talk of them feeling “odd”. We decided to de-tune and re-tune and make something a little less eccentric, but still with a host of Ragley features that people love. Piglet is a Baby Blue Pig, but with lots of new features. A slimmer downtime saves weight but has Fathead strength. Geometry is just a little steeper and designed around 120mm forks. The new investment cast 3-fi nger-bridge protects your frame against chainsuck and improves tyre clearance. Conventional rear stays make people stare less and simplify cable routing - which is still bolt-on. Piglet’s the bike for hardcore riding, for sure, but we think it’s for people that ride with their saddle up more than their saddle down.

QED - singlespeeds? With our reputation.We have a history with singlespeeds, and people kept asking. And saying NO was getting quite annoying for everyone. So with our new rear stay design, and with a few other things, we thought, why not. Geometry is the same as the new Piglet, as we think singlespeeds should be shorter rather than longer travel. But if you really disagree, you can run something longer. It’s dedicated, purposefully singlespeed only. With no extra bosses or mess. Just ride.

CRAGGVALE

BAGGER 288 & TROOF

The British Winter is a cruel thing. And a British Winter Training Bike needs to be well equipped to cope. Trying to help the rider cope with that annoying wetness, bad traffi c, poor driving, bad light. We made this our aim with the Cragg Vale, named after a local training hill, with the longest uninteruppted climb in the UK. Refl ective decals help give you a fi ghting chance against “Sorry mate, I didn’t see you.” With a classic geometry, with a nod towards longer top tube length, we keep the top tube mostly horizontal for a look that distinguishes you from the masses, and will get sage nods from old men with clips and straps.Hand welded from 7005-T6 alloy, and available with our own model winter mudguards, this is the one for the long dark nights. And dark days.

For all of you that asked. We did it.We found when we made a frame for 140mm forks, people ask us if it’d take 160’s. We said yes. And it did. But for 2011, we decided to do a full-on 160mm frame - and we’re sure people will ask about 180’s. And yes. It’ll be fi ne.Slacker, tougher, crazier. Head angle’s kicked back half a degree. BB drop is increased 5mm to lower things a bit. Trust us. It’s ace. Dropouts are licenced DMR Swopouts. So you can run Maxle, or QR. Maxle makes sense when you’re bashing things hard.And you’ve a choice of materials - alloy or steel. But the rest? Same stuff. Same as we give everyone else.

CARNEGIE MTB CARBON RISER BAR

We’ve done our time with “alt” bar designs, and we know what can work. We know that people that like them, really like them, and those that don’t, well, they stand and stare.So we threw technology at it. If you’re going to make a different bar, let’s make it really different - but not just for the sake of it. Carbon, and not just any carbon but Toray T-700 carbon, and covered with a dual layer wrap of Dupont Kevlar. Nobody else does this and we don’t know why.... T700 is used for structural strength, and Kevlar for it’s abrasion resistant properties - protecting the inner carbon from knocks and scratches. Makes sense, even if you think the bar doesn’t eh?

Features:* Same geometry as the acclaimed Carnegie alloy bar* Around 3x the defl ection for a load... resilient ride.* Sub 200g weight* Raw, Black or White fi nish.* 31.8mm clamp, 685mm wide

We’ve not just got a thing about weird handlebars. We wanted to apply some technology and add options for regular bars too. 720mm works for us, so that’s our standard width. We offer 25 and 38mm rises for shorter and taller riders. We offer carbon and alloy models too…

Wiser CarbonUsing our experience from the Carnegie project, we used a Toray T-700 carbon structural element, and a DuPont Kevlar outer wrap to protect the carbon elements of bar from any trail based damage. 8deg back and 5deg upsweep round out the package.

* Sub 200g weight, but maximum strength* 720mm wide* 8deg backsweep, 5deg upsweep* Toray T-700 carbon wrapped with DuPont Kevlar

Wiser AlloyA cool effective 720mm bar with 8/5 geometry in 7075-T6 alloy. Reliable and dependable, but the right width without you having to take out a hacksaw.

* Drawn 7075-T6 alloy tubing* 720mm wide* 8deg backsweep, 5deg upsweep* Shot peen anodised fi nish for maximum durability

CARNEGIE MTB FLAT BAR

WISER BARS

Alternative style mtb bar with 25deg backsweep. Oversize bar clamp for strength and stiffness when you’re hauling. Spec is a with 685mm tip-to-tip, which as the bars are angled makes them feel like a true trail-worthy 700mm bar. That’s 27.5in. They can be trimmed, a little, but the width is great for control - we like it this way. Now available in two version - the regular one with 1in rise, and a fl ipped version with 1in drop for people wanting a low front end, and a fl at version for those that can’t decide.

Features:• 7075 triple butted tubing - the very best out there. Heat treated. Shot peened• Black anodised• Tested to exceed the new stringent CEN standard.• Clamp size - 31.8mm• Weight is under 300g

SPIKE SEATPOST

STUBBING STEMCNC’d from a solid billet of 7075-T6 alloy, the Stub-bing stem is designed to hold your bars securely whatever moves you’re pulling. With a Lock-Down clamping mechanism, the top of the bar clamp locks shut, and tension for bar clamping is taken care of by the two lower bolts - avoiding any problems with uneven tensioning across the faceplate.

Three lengths but only 5mm difference between each let you choose the exact right length for your fun hardtail. With only 50, 55 or 60mm to choose from, you can see we encourage short-stem use, with a matching wide bar being a great complemen-tary addition.

Thought you’d seen it all? Here’s a new seatpost that makes re-setting your saddle to the right height easier than ever before. No bits of string or centre punch marks, or scratches... Ragley’s spiral graphic helps you set your saddle height faster than ever, without having to grovel behind your bike and try to look at numbers that have worn off.
