Expirience with the Ibis Ripley XT

Ludwig Döhl With its curved frame shape, the Ripley XT represents the design principles of Ibis like hardly any other bike in the portfolio of the Americans. And of course, this bike, like all models of Ibis, with the proven DW-Link rear suspension system. Ibis is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Trailbike von Ibis. The Ibis has still a ace up its sleeve. When it goes down the hill, the absolutely coherent geometry always makes you want to come back for more. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
