With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

This means that for any reason you decide that you no longer want the product you may return it in it's original packaging, un-used with the relevant tags attached back to us and once checked we will refund your money within 28 days or replace your product (subject to stock availability). This offer in non-transferable. We do not accept returns that are customer soiled unless faulty and part of a warrantly claim.
Brand:Ridley
Code:VARNOAHSL5BLKNeon
From the beginning, Ridley has been at the forefront of bicycle aerodynamics. Before it was a fad, they developed and patented a series of FAST technologies setting the benchmark for what an ‘aero road bike’ should be.
‘Aero’ is more than just tear dropped tubes. Every Noah FAST is an integration of components and other technologies that minimize the rider’s effort of cutting through the wind (no matter where it is coming from) and the drag associated with parts interacting with the frame. Not just theoretical wind tunnel numbers but actual real world results.
As the name suggests the Noah SL Ultegra comes with an Ultegra 11 spd groupset. Carbon aero seatpost and 4ZA aerbar handlebar and stem. Fulcrum racing aero wheelset finished with Continental Ultrasport tyres.
You may find plenty of talk regarding different geometry of road bikes with some suited to racing and others suited to endurance or sportive.
In general there is one key difference and that is that the race bike will have a lower front end give more aerodynamic position where as the endurance bike will be higher offering a more comfortable position on the bike.
Many manufactures have now taken their designs even further by producing frames not only based geometry to suits the different styles but also changing the make up of the frames to suit. For example the Scott Addict is a road race bike. This has a race geometry but also the frame is designed to be stiffer, lighter and extremely responsive. On the other side you have the Scott Solace which has an endurance geometry. This has also been designed to be light and responsive but it's also been designed so areas of the frame flex offering more comfort to the rider over long distances.
The key when deciding which bike to choose is to first think about what you want from the bike. If comfort is paramount then choose an endurance bike. If speed is top of the list then choose a race bike.
