The new Ibis Ripley
The Ripley is available in two different geometries. The Ripley LS combines a 15 millimeter longer top tube and will be available in three sizes. The steering angle of the LS has been adjusted to 67.5 degrees. This means that the LS can be combined with shorter stems and thus promises a smoother ride. The familiar Ripley geometry will continue to be offered in the sizes Medium, Large and X-Large.
The development towards wider tires has not bypassed the Ripley. In combination with its own Ibis 941 rim, tires up to 2.35 inches wide can easily be ridden with the new rear triangle. A "Boost" version will also be available from November.
The Ibis relies entirely on internally routed cables. In order to meet the various standards, Ibis offers different end caps.
For the suspension, Ibis relies on the components from Fox Suspension. The Fox Float DPS Shock was developed in collaboration with Fox engineers and adapted to the Ripley. A Fox 34 is used for the suspension fork. Both versions are supplied with the 130 millimeter version of the fork.
