Expirience with the Ibis Exie XT

Ludwig Döhl Jenny Rissveds has proven several times in the Cross Country World Cup how fast the Exie XT can be. The top versions of the Exie are even manufactured by Ibis in the USA and not as usual in Asia. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The seating position is sporty. If a high-quality shifting system is particularly important to you, you probably will not be happy with the Ibis Fully. Apart from this criticism, the sporty orientation makes the Downcountry-Bike von Ibis the best climber in the price range below above 8000 Euro. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Ibis puts a lot of trust in its products.
