The new Ritchey P-29er is ready for whatever you throw at it. It would be at home at just about any mountain bike or gravel event. Ritchey likes to say that the new P-29er has a “built-in go anywhere attitude”, which is a reflection of Tom Ritchey’s off-road ethos.

The perfect example of an ATB, the P-29er is a blank canvas for your preferred off-road build. If you see fit, you can honor the P-29er’s XC heritage by running it with a flat bar and suspension fork to slay some curvy singletrack. Or, run it with a drop bar and carbon fork to tackle long gravel, dirt, and fire road adventures.

The P-29er fits up to 2.3″ tires and was designed around a 100mm fork. It sports stealthy dropper post routing and has standard Boost spacing. It’s also got Ritchey’s ultralight forged and tapered head tube.

Running the P-29er with a purpose-built rigid adventure fork that sports multi-gear mounts and a flaired drop bar allows you to pack it up, and get out of town on your next bikepacking mission.

If ever there was a bike that needed a steel fork, this is it.

Agree. Top of the list of the bikes I don’t like the look of are anything which has a mismatched stem or fork relative to the size of the frame – which accounts for a huge percentage of anything custom or bespoke! Same with dropouts usually, which is just one thing Ritchey gets right.

What kind of steel fork?
I ask as I have some 100+ sets of Columbus Genius Unicrown forks. Nobody want them 🙁 I almost throw all of that, including tooling (a lots of Kg of tooling) in recycling.

Drop bars on an MTB. Not about the brand, but good to remember Frischi!

Bruh, they are missing the finish line here. Have an option to include a paint matched fork, duh. To add to that, 1 bottle cage on the small frame? ‍♂️ Why not add a bottle cage mount to the bottom of the downtube? Come on man!

I know TR is a Shimano fan but he’s seriously missing out by not going UDH

Limiting the bike to a 38t chainring really limits the true potential as a quiver killer gravel bike… I know 38×9 with new shimano is pretty fast, but a 42t clearance would put one more in the middle while still being sub 1:1 on the spinny end of things.
