The Ridgeback Velocity Open Frame Utility Bike – Blue is built for riders who want a smooth, dependable, and highly adaptable bicycle for everyday use. Featuring a lightweight aluminium frame paired with a hi-ten chromoly fork, it offers the perfect blend of strength, durability, and easy handling. Whether navigating busy urban streets, climbing steep inclines, or cruising leisurely through parks, the Velocity delivers a comfortable, controlled ride.

Equipped with the Shimano Acera 24-speed drivetrain, this bike gives you precise and smooth shifting. Its triple chainset and wide-range 11–34T cassette provide gearing for everything from fast flat-road cycling to challenging hill climbs. Shimano ST-EF500 EZ-Fire shifters ensure quick, intuitive gear changes so you can adapt to changing conditions effortlessly.

Stopping power comes from Shimano BR-T4000 V-brakes, delivering consistent braking performance in both dry and wet conditions. They are reliable, low-maintenance, and responsive — essential for safe city riding. The Schwalbe Citizen K-Guard 700x40c tyres are puncture-resistant, ensuring fewer interruptions from flats while giving you grip and comfort over varied surfaces.

The open frame design allows for easy mounting and dismounting, making it particularly user-friendly for stop-start urban journeys. Comfort is further enhanced by the custom high-density saddle and riser handlebar, which promote a relaxed, upright riding position.

With mounting points for mudguards and racks, the Velocity can be transformed into a capable commuter, cargo carrier, or touring bike. At just 16.9 kg, it’s light enough to carry upstairs or onto public transport.

From weekday commutes to weekend leisure rides, the Ridgeback Velocity Open Frame is a practical, stylish, and versatile choice for riders who value comfort, reliability, and adaptability in a single bike.

Bikes Delivery Information

Bike & Ride – The Premier Option for You

Fix This Bike is proud to be one of the few online bike retailers in the UK offering a delivery service that guarantees your bike arrives fully assembled and ready to ride. Our premier delivery option, ‘Bike & Ride,’ is available for just £70 per bike and ensures that your biking experience starts effortlessly and smoothly.

With ‘Bike & Ride,’ your new bike will arrive in a specially designed bike box with minimal packaging, ensuring protection during transit while reducing environmental impact. Included are all the necessary tools, so you can start riding within minutes of delivery. Our commitment to sustainability means we avoid using foam, bubble wrap, and zip-ties, opting instead for eco-friendly packaging. We encourage you to recycle any materials where possible, contributing to a greener planet and giving you the added satisfaction of making an environmentally responsible choice.

Bike & Ride for Standard Bikes

For standard bikes, our ‘Bike & Ride’ service ensures that each bike undergoes meticulous assembly and rigorous quality checks by our expert bike builders. This attention to detail guarantees that your bike meets the highest standards of safety and performance. To facilitate this thorough process, bicycles are not eligible for next-day delivery, ensuring each bike is perfectly prepared for you.

Bike & Ride for E-Bikes

Due to the additional weight and unique handling needs of electric bikes, we cannot ship them fully assembled. Instead, our expert mechanics will assemble, configure, and thoroughly inspect your electric bike before repacking it in its original box. This process requires the removal of the front wheel, handlebars, pedals, and seat-post, which you will need to reinstall upon delivery. We provide detailed instructions and all necessary tools to help you complete the assembly quickly and effortlessly.

Experience the unmatched convenience and quality of ‘Bike & Ride’ by purchasing your bike from our online shop. With Fix This Bike, you’re choosing a service that prioritises your riding experience, environmental responsibility, and exceptional quality from the moment you receive your bike.
