What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've spent long days climbing and descending on the Ripley, and it still amazes me how efficiently it pedals while staying composed on rough trails. The dw-link suspension keeps traction high on technical climbs, and the updated geometry feels calm and predictable when speeds pick up. It's the bike I grab when I want one ride that truly does it all."We chase long climbs, fast singletrack, and that perfect balance between efficiency and fun, and the Ripley fits seamlessly into that rhythm. Built by Ibis Cycles, the Ripley blends a lively trail feel with real all-day capability, making it just as eager on sustained climbs as it is confident on flowing descents and technical terrain. The carbon frame and dw-link suspension deliver 130mm of efficient rear travel paired with a 140mm fork for modern trail control. Size-specific geometry and suspension tuning keep the ride balanced across all sizes, while internal frame storage keeps tools and essentials tucked neatly away. The Ripley is a true quiver-of-one trail bike built for riders who value efficiency without giving up downhill confidence.
