The Radavist

We shared the news earlier this month. If you have a “Chicken Coop” 1980 Ritchey or an early biplane model from 1979 to 1982 that is missing its fork or Bullmoose bar, now’s your chance to have Tom Ritchey himself build a replacement fork for it. Ritchey is now taking orders as Tom resurrects the MOUNTAIN BIKES name…

Bars start at $700 for an unpainted clampless threadless version.
Forks start at $800 for unpainted sloping crown threaded steerer.

Roll on over to Ritchey to submit a form for order.

We’ll continue to update this list for 2024

Hardtails make the world go round. Especially here at The Radavist. We’ve been long-time supporters of these capable yet simple mountain bikes and as people decide on the “next bike” after reaching the limitations on their gravel bikes, we thought it’d be nice to compile a list of current hardtail models we dig, all under or around $2,000 so let’s get to it!
