The Ripley AF is for all kinds of riders on all kinds of trails. Whether you're new to the sport, linking up big backcountry rides with friends, or just out to see where that next singletrack leads, the Ripley AF brings the same fast, playful feel the Ripley is known for--in a tough aluminum package that's ready for anything. With 130mm of rear travel and 140mm up front, it climbs efficiently and descends with confidence. Its progressive geometry gives it quick and responsive handling on tight trails while keeping things stable when the speed picks up. Designed for riders who value agility, capability, and all-around fun, the Ripley AF shares all the features of its carbon counterpart: DW-Link suspension, 29" wheels front and rear, flip chips to run a 27.5" rear wheel (if you're into mullets), and in-frame storage with two included bags -- for all your snacks and tools.
