Ritchey est une marque américaine qui crée depuis une cinquantaine d'années des composants pour le VTT, la route et le Gravel. Tom Ritchey, son fondateur est l'un des pionniers de l'histoire du VTT. Les valeurs de Ritchey de nos jours n'ont pas bougées : Proposer des périphériques de qualité dont l'efficacité a été démontrée sur le terrain, et ce, pour toutes les bourses. La gamme de cintres est assez large. Ce guide te permettra de t'y retrouver.  

Tu es en train de choisir ton poste de pilotage et tu te demandes quelle combinaison de cintre et de potence serait idéale pour ton utilisation ? L'article ci-dessous devrait te donner des éléments de réponse !

Tu as envie d'aventure. Tu souhaites partir loin avec ton vélo. Le choix de ton vélo gravel est essentiel. Le choix de tes sacoches pour bikepacking l'est tout autant ! On a choisi de bosser avec Miss Grape car, comme nos vélos, leurs sacoches sont fabriquées artisanalement en Italie. La qualité est irréprochable. La gamme est large sans être redondante, bref, on adore ! Dans l'article ci dessous, je te propose de retrouver un guide d'achat présentant l'ensemble de la gamme avec un tas de photos en situation. Bonne lecture !

Le truc cool avec un vélo Gravel, c’est que tu vas poser tes roues un peu partout. Tu vas parcourir des chemins roulants, de longues grimpettes bien vicieuses et même, de temps en temps, des liaisons sur du goudron lisse comme le crâne de Kojak. Ton vélo, ta Paula, devrais je dire, aura donc régulièrement à faire le grand écart ! Et oui tu m’as vu venir de loin avec mon jeu de mot en carton mais je ne savais pas trop comment lancer le sujet. Bon. On va commencer par un rappel. Le groupe Campagnolo Ekar tu connais  Lorsqu’il a...

Rhalalalala! Broad topic. I'm not going to try to convince you that one solution is better than another. In my opinion, it all depends on what you are going to use your bike for and where you are going to put your wheels. Take Paula for example. Having been designed as a sporty Gravel, the field of application is extremely wide. You're going to roughly use adventure/bikepacking well loaded in luggage without worrying too much about the hourly average for all-road / road use in all weather and all conditions where performance will be a little more at the center of the...

Hutchinson is, as its name does not suggest, a French brand. It was created in 1853 by an American, Hiram Hutchinson, who had just bought the vulcanization patent from Goodyear and who wanted to establish himself in France. As early as 1890, the first bicycle tires appeared. With more than a century of experience in the design and manufacturing of bicycle tires, Hutchinson is the only manufacturer that still manufactures its products in France. At Massacan, besides the History of cycling, we like to harness local talent and encourage short circuit economy. By getting closer to Hutchinson, we discovered a...

We, at Massacan absolutely love Miche components and wheels ! Why ? Because Miche has been producing quality components and wheels for many years. Of course, they have neither the marketing budget nor the visibility of the big players in the sector and they do not sponsor World Tour teams either. Where it counts though is in the know-how department. And here, Miche excels, with more than 100 years of experience. At Miche, every effort is done to keep the production in Italy for the vast majority of products. Speaking of production tools, Miche is not kidding. The San Vendemiano...

If you come to this page it means you are a big geek and believe me, at Massacan we share the same passion 🫶. Another thing we like is to express ourselves, debate and share. I will try to present to you some elements which dictated certain technical choices applied to Paula. Now I must warn you. You know as well as we do, in the world of cycling there are dogmas and preconceived ideas, justified or not. For example, on the road, the subject of tire width and pressure has changed quite a bit over the last 30 years....
