Anyone rate them? seems a good offer at the moment.

Anything similar?

Never ridden one, but was in their shop the other day, and they do look nice... If a little over branded...

They come out quite expensive once you've built them up to a decent spec I thought..

I'd probably go down the Plannet x route myself.

I'd agree with the overbranded statement but I have a Ribble Ribelle and it's lovely. Not the lightest though.

Good luck dealing with Ribble, the worst customer service in the world...ever.

I've got a Ribble Sportive Racing and its lovely. No complaints what so ever, though the head tube is massive.

I think C+ reviewed them earlier in 2009. They liked them if memory serves me correctly.

Be aware customer service (which had improved in recent years) appears to be going off again, with poor delivery dates etc, and no replies to e-mails etc.

After one rewarding transaction with them, I can safely say that I have never bought anything from them.

Dam.

Onone it is then. Ti proabaly and more dough!

The Ribbles look really good though! but aftersales is crucial I guess.

Thanks for nfo (want to build a bike as my knee is due for a rest after operation)
