Peak Performance.
Local Knowledge.
Ridgeline Cycles is an independent mountain bike specialist based in the heart of Bakewell. We are dedicated to providing the highest level of technical expertise and premium equipment for riders who demand more from their rig.
Engineering since 2009.
Founded in 2009 by Dave Harrison, Ridgeline Cycles was born from a passion for the technical trails of the Peak District. We understood early on that this region demands more from a mountain bike than almost anywhere else in the UK.
Our mission has always been simple: to provide riders with the equipment and technical support they need to dominate the technical gritstone descents and limestone mud of our home trails.
