Ultra-light Ripley SL XTR Di2 Carbon Wheel Mountain Bike delivers elite XC speed with premium trail control
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"This is the no-compromise Ripley SL. The XTR Di2 drivetrain is unbelievably precise, the braking power is excellent, and the carbon wheels make the bike feel instantly responsive. It climbs effortlessly, holds speed on flats, and stays calm when the trail turns technical. If you want the most refined version of this platform, this is it."
The Ripley SL XTR Di2 Carbon Wheel Mountain Bike from Ibis is built for riders who want the lightest, most refined expression of cross-country speed with real trail capability. Designed and manufactured in California, this premium carbon build blends race-level efficiency with confident, modern handling for demanding terrain.
With 117mm of dw-link rear travel paired to a 130mm fork, the Ripley SL pedals with exceptional efficiency while remaining composed through roots, rocks, and high-speed corners. The suspension maintains traction under power, making long climbs feel smooth and controlled, while the balanced geometry delivers stability and confidence when speeds increase.
Top-tier components define the ride experience. Shimano XTR Di2 electronic shifting delivers lightning-fast, consistent gear changes, while powerful XTR 4-piston brakes provide precise modulation and control on long descents. Carbon wheels reduce rotational weight for faster acceleration and sharper handling, and integrated Ibis STOW in-frame storage adds everyday trail practicality to a truly elite build.
Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.

Sungrown In California
The Ripley SL is manufactured in Ibis’ 100% solar-powered California facility, where carbon layups, tolerances, and finishes are controlled in-house. That hands-on process delivers consistent quality, a refined ride feel, and confidence baked into every frame.
117mm, Dialed DW-Link
Short travel does not mean short on capability. The 117mm dw-link suspension is tuned for efficiency under power while staying composed when the trail gets rough, giving the Ripley SL a fast, controlled feel that rewards smooth lines and hard efforts.
Race-Weight Carbon Frame
At just 5 pounds with shock, the Ripley SL frame keeps overall bike weight low without chasing fragility. The result is a lively, responsive ride that accelerates quickly and feels easy to manage on long climbs and full days in the saddle.
Dialed STOW Storage
Integrated Ibis STOW frame storage keeps tools, snacks, and essentials tucked securely inside the downtube. Two purpose-built bags reduce rattle and wasted space, helping riders leave packs behind while keeping weight centered and out of the way.
Size-Specific Fit
Modern geometry and size-specific details help the Ripley SL deliver the same balanced, intuitive ride feel across the entire size range.
- Five sizes from Small through XL
- Steeper seat tube angles on larger sizes for consistent pedaling position
- Long dropper compatibility for confident descending
- Space for two bottles inside the front triangle on most sizes
Clean, Purpose-Built Setup
Thoughtful frame details make building and maintaining the Ripley SL straightforward and reliable.
- Threaded BSA bottom bracket for quiet, serviceable builds
- Integrated upper chain guide for added security
- Compatible with mechanical or wireless shifting
- Molded frame protection in high-impact zones

Built To Fly
Ibis Cycles started in 1981 when founder Scot Nicol opened a tiny workshop near Mendocino, California, with no big plan beyond building mountain bikes that were fun to ride and tough enough for the rough stuff. Today, from its home base in Santa Cruz, Ibis remains a small, rider-owned company focused on doing a few things really well: designing carbon and aluminum mountain bikes that climb efficiently, descend playfully, and feel lively every time you point them down the trail. With long-time owners and in-house engineering still deeply involved in the day-to-day, the brand stands for bikes that are light, durable, and above all, a blast to ride—whether you are racing, lapping local trails, or just chasing that next perfect corner.
