The Ritchey Break-Away Septimer is a carbon frameset engineered for road travel and gravel expeditions, featuring the patented Break-Away® system that allows the frame to split into two sections for convenient transport, while retaining ride characteristics once reassembled. It’s a functional platform designed for 1x or 2x drivetrains, wide tyre clearance, mounts for bags, racks and fenders, and a purpose-built carbon fork with load-ready features.
Independent reviews consistently describe the Ritchey Break-Away Septimer as a frameset designed specifically for travel, rather than a gravel bike adapted after the fact.
Reviewers particularly highlight:
the Break-Away system, which allows the bike to be packed into a compact, included travel case, making air travel and transfers significantly easier;
the balanced ride quality, comparable to that of a modern gravel/all-road bike once reassembled, without noticeable structural compromise;
the versatility of use, thanks to clearance for tyres up to 700×48c and the presence of multiple mounts for bags, racks and fenders;
a design approach focused on reliability and coherence, rather than chasing the latest standards, prioritising simplicity and long-term durability.
Overall, the Septimer is viewed as a well-executed solution for riders who want to travel with their own bike and then ride confidently on both paved roads and mixed surfaces.
Multipurpose Mounts
Each fork leg is equipped with triple mounts that allow riders to carry bottles, cargo cages or other accessories—practical support for travel without impacting ride feel.
Integrated Carbon Crown
The fork’s integrated carbon crown works seamlessly with Ritchey headsets, reducing interface stress at the steerer crown and contributing to a more even load distribution.
