Jochim s passion for road racing and frame craftsmanship was soon channeled into his own brand in 1997 when Ridley Bicycles was founded. In a few short years, Ridley became the market leader in Belgium for racing bikes. It was Jochim s partnerships with racing clubs and a good eye for advanced racing technology that created Ridley s early success. It has always been a key part of Ridley s product development to create a strong alliance with their teams, not just providing them with bikes, but working on a very close basis with the riders and the team mechanics to develop their models. The sponsored teams compete on stock frames which enables Ridley to test under extreme riding conditions.
