I am just wondering whether anyone knows where I can get a compiled version of Windows Ribbon for WinForms 2.2? I can only download the source from the website and as I don’t have the Windows 7 SDK (and can’t download) I can’t compile it.

Even if you could download the DLL (you can’t), it is not going to help you. To create your own ribbon for use in your own application you must create a ribbon markup file. That file needs to be compiled by UICC.EXE, a tool that is only available in the Windows 7 SDK. Without that tool, you cannot create your own ribbon.
Downloading the SDK is required. Note that the SDK version that comes with VS2010 is not good enough, it is a sub-set of the SDK and does not include uicc.exe
