40 Jahre Ritchey: Doku über Tom Ritchey

- Tom Ritchey gilt als einer der Erfinder des Mountainbikes, wie wir es heute kennen. Vor 40 Jahren schweißte der damalige Teenager seinen ersten eigenen Rahmen. Hier die Video-Doku zum 40-jährigen Jubiläum.
Alles begann in den 70er Jahren. Ritchey steuerte seine selbstgebauten Rennräder offroad über die kalifornischen Trails, als ihn Joe Breeze 1978 mit seinem Ballon-Bike die Inspiration für das erste 26-Zoll-Mountainbike mit dicken Profilreifen. Gary Fischer wollte gleich so ein Bike haben, der Rest ist bekannte Geschichte. Ein Interview mit Tom Ritchey gibt's hier: www.bike-magazin.de/hintergru...

One of the most innovative American bike designers and still is.
he is the one
Tolle Doku, danke!
Ohne solche Menschen gäbe es heute den Sport nicht - danke Tom!
Natürlich war das nicht er allein sondern noch ein paar andere Hippies, aber er war dennoch ein wichtiger Teil davon...
Wirklich interessant, sehr sehenswert.
Used Rithey bullhorns on all my mountain bikes all my life and so does my little son now. Family tradition.
Love my Ritchey Breakaway... hopefully when things get back to normal I can take it on some flights somewhere. Thanks Tom!
I find it relaxing going back like that.
Awesome guy.
That moment he said that his companion on that particular days ride "Instilled upon him a tremendous amount of respect". Had a similar effect as to my respect for Ritchey himself. What this artisan did with his P-21 mountain bike is stuff of legend #Craftmanship
Great documentary!
Loved the video, thank you.
God bless Tom from the UK 👍
Человек легенда! Много чего добился! Потому что с душой делает своё дело.
I salute you Tom!
I have a p21 and I'm still riding it with his tyres z-max 26".
Cool story
I’ve ridden many of Ritchey’s components,and they were all great stuff at considerably leight weight! 🤙
Ich liebe auch Bikes ♥️👍
i should have done my homework by now but anyways great doku
fundemantales Stück des Mountainbikens.
ein P-21 Team hätte ich noch gern
Ich habe ein P21
does anyone know where i can get those glasses that tom is wearing?
I own a MTB Ritchey P-20 Serial Number at bottom bracket is P20 362 and every single spoke has TR logo on its tips and many many Tom Ritchey Pro Logic original parts
Hartlöten heisst das und nicht Schweißen. Danke fürs Hochladen.
Gruß
I have that magazine shown at 12:39!
26' wheel for ever ! Good Guy
I indeed would like to see a bike with 26-feet wheels😉.
And giving credit to Jobst Brand 👍
🇮🇹💯💪🚴
Iscritto subito!!!! Bel canale.... Dai un occhiata anche al mio 😜
Hi guys, I have a specialized rockhopper from 1998, but does anyone know what this means ritchey logic?
the tubing made by ritchey components.
Ritchey first went to Columbus asking for specific tubing where he could utilize butted in the way he felt more suited in lugless construction, based on rider weight / sizing and lastly, could be shaped. Columbus said no or couldn't produce, so he went to Tange Japan. That turned out to be a success. Years later, eventually Columbus figured it out and called their version 'Genius'. Ritchey carried the 'Logic' name to his components product offerings. Another example was early on both Suntour and Shimano would 'only' offer their mountain crank sets with oval chainrings. Although building his bikes by using those makers components, was against using the oval chainrings and specified only round. They wouldn't submit so he went on his own using SR forged cranks with 'round' chainrings, and soon after called them Ritchey Logic with that branding silkscreened on them.
@@Shopsmith10er nice history. But how can you mention these tubesets, including "Genius," but fail to mention Ibis' "Moron" tubing? As in "more on" the ends, or their custom butted tubing! Such a great spoof and shot at the endless marketing gimmicks & buzzwords of the corporate world that bikes became.
i thought gary fischer invented the mtb
That's the great debate. Lots of people were doing it back then. My first 'mtb' was a modified Schwinn Varsity in the '70s. I built lots of single speeds from piles of junk and rode them until they broke or I got bored with them, gave 'em away, sold 'em or traded them. I still do this stuff, but the bikes are quite a bit nicer now. We rode racing bikes with tubulars offroad back then too. We just used what we had and went exploring. It was a fun adventure to just go out and get lost. I rode in the same areas as Ritchey and even saw him a few times. I even know where his house is now.
Probably the best thing in my mind was the reactions we got from hikers and equestrians. We were the outcasts. The weirdo bike geeks. They looked at us like we were aliens. We were always pretty cool and polite , certainly never dicks. But they were scared and rich folks fought off road riders for many years after.
I was very fortunate to grow up in the Bay Area. There's so much good riding everywhere here and perfect weather for it all year. But I'm retiring and moving to greener pastures in the Rockies. There's even more riding there and lots of other fun stuff to do.
This guy totally bitched out
Use your resources to build a m100% USA 🇺🇸 Richey 🇺🇸
I’d make entry level $800-1500
Next step $3500-10,000
And... the big top 17,000-80,000

Modern ritchey components are roughly comparable to most counterparts by other quality component manufacturers. The breakaway system is appealing, too (as is S&S coupling). But the bikes designed by this trophy-hunt'n mamma-hump'n cowboy look like absolutely hideous prehistoric garbage. The only reason this company is relevant today - is because of the components, most likely sourced from an actual component manufacturer somewhere in chinkland.
Get a load of this frickin idiot ^
I don't think this moron rides much. It just worships it's bike.
We ride our bikes, we don't look at them much while riding. That's not too safe and it's simply vane.
Steel is real. There is a timeless beauty to fine old handmade things and they generally last much longer. I will trust custom frame builders with decades of experience with my life rather than Asian factories producing millions. I also get EXACTLY what I want and I KNOW who built my frame. Its always a person who loves what he's doing! IGNORE MARKETING! It's Nothing but brainwashing and propaganda.
You couldn't sound more ignorant or stupid if you tried. Oh and finishing with the racist coup de grace was perfect! Bravo, idiot!
