Playful efficiency meets modern trail capability with the Ripley—130mm of dw-link travel and confident 29in speed
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve spent long days climbing and descending on the Ripley, and it still blows me away how efficiently it pedals without feeling harsh on the downs. The dw-link suspension keeps traction high on technical climbs, and the updated geometry feels calm and composed when things get steep. It’s the bike I grab when I want one ride that can do everything well—from after-work laps to big weekend adventures."
We chase long climbs, fast singletrack, and that perfect balance between efficiency and fun, and the Ripley fits right into that rhythm. Built by Ibis Cycles, the Ripley blends a playful trail feel with all-day capability, making it just as happy hammering uphill as it is floating through flowy descents. From quick spins out the door to full-day missions deep in the mountains, it feels intuitive, energetic, and endlessly confidence inspiring.
Under the hood, the Ripley’s carbon frame and dw-link suspension deliver 130mm of ultra-efficient rear travel paired with a 140mm fork for modern trail control. Size-specific geometry and suspension kinematics keep the ride balanced across the full size range, while internal frame storage cleans up your kit and keeps essentials close at hand. Add in modern compatibility, refined geometry, and premium components, and the Ripley becomes a true quiver-of-one trail bike.

Size-Specific Everything
Every rider deserves the same ride feel. Size-specific seat tube angles, suspension kinematics, chainstay length, and bottom bracket height keep the Ripley balanced and fast across all frame sizes.
5 Sizes
With 80% of riders between 5'5" and 6'0", Ibis introduced a new Extra-Medium (size 3) for a more precise fit. The Ripley now offers five sizes to better match rider proportions.
Flip It
A flip chip lets riders run 29" wheels or a mixed 29"/27.5" MX setup without compromising geometry. The Ripley ships with 29" wheels.
DW-Link Suspension
The dw-link suspension platform delivers efficient climbing and confident descending. Size-specific kinematics keep every frame size pedaling efficiently while staying smooth on rough trails.
Internal Frame Storage
Carry tools and snacks inside the frame with a water-resistant, rattle-free storage system. The easy-to-use latch works even with gloves in cold or muddy conditions. Includes two Cotopaxi-made storage bags crafted from remnant materials.

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.
