The latest version of Ribble’s Endurance SLR road bike also delivers comfortable fast-ride efficiency, all-weather versatility and great handling for a top-value price.

The Endurance SLR Disc has convinced me that Ribble deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as the likes of Cannondale, Specialized and Trek.

It’s a thumbs-up for the frame that has steel’s usual qualities: fine handling and a suppleness that damps road bumps and delivers great comfort, but I was less enthusiastic about those brakes.
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
The Ribble Endurance AL is a lot of fun to ride thanks to a quality frame and fork with well thought-out geometry.

  • Decent tyres

  • Excellent value

Lows
  • Wheels rein in its performance

  • Still a bit buzzy
