The Ibis Ripley is the trail bike that's game for anything. This award-winning frame has been updated with more travel and slacker geometry, making it even more capable and fun. It climbs with remarkable speed yet stays snappy and playful on the way down, thanks to 130mm of ultra-efficient dw-link rear travel paired with a 140mm fork.

dw-link's inherent efficiency means you don't need an overdamped shock to climb well. Less damping lets the wheels stay planted, giving more traction and the hover-bike feel Ibis frames are known for. A new flip chip lets you run full 29" or mixed 27.5"/29" (MX) wheels on every size without compromising the geometry, and an expanded size range means everyone gets a good fit.

The Ripley also gains internal frame storage. The latch works easily even with cold, muddy gloves, and the door is water-resistant, rattle-free and robust. Inside go two bags made with Cotopaxi from remnant and dead-stock fabric, so each is colourful and unique.
