Ribble Sportive Racing help required
I am in the market to upgrade my current alu/carbon frame and like the look of this frame. I mainly do long club runs and the occasional race. Has anyone got information on it first hand as read reviews but long term ownership would tell me more.

I second the above.
I have a 2010 Sportive Racing (as opposed to the new shaped sportive) And have been very happy with it from day 1.
Had mine coming up for 2 years now. No idea how many miles I've done, but have used it on several triathlons, cycling holidays in France, as well pootling about good old potholed South London and it's never put a foot wrong. Service from Ribble was fine too.
Thanks for the advice
I went for the Gran Fondo, and absolutely love it, a friend has the Sportive Bianco, and he loves that too! My experience of Ribble as a company is totally positive, they were really helpful and honest before I bought my bike and haven't had any problems since!
Thanks for the advice
