Description

The legend returns. You asked – Ritchey listened. Back by popular demand, the Ritchey P-29er makes its triumphant return to the trails.

A modern manifestation of Tom Ritchey’s deep mountain biking heritage, the P-29er is designed for fast, technical cross-country singletrack. Built from Ritchey’s proprietary triple-butted Logic steel and featuring progressive XC geometry, it delivers a perfectly balanced ride—responsive and snappy, yet comfortable and composed.

From roots and rocks to endless ribbons of singletrack, the P-29er is a celebration of everything great about mountain biking. With BOOST spacing, stealth dropper routing, and compatibility with 100mm forks, it’s a forward-thinking frame with old-school soul.
