Ibis

Ripmo XT Mountain Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Ripmo is that unicorn bike—super efficient uphill and an absolute monster on the downs. The XT build gives you top-tier reliability without the price of XTR, and the frame feels stiff, fast, and totally dialed."

The Ibis Ripmo XT Mountain Bike is built to dominate both ends of the enduro spectrum—technical climbs and high-speed descents—with a platform that fuses modern geometry, intelligent suspension design, and category-defining componentry. The heart of the Ripmo is its DW-Link suspension platform, offering 147mm of efficient, traction-rich rear travel that climbs with XC-like responsiveness and descends with composure usually reserved for longer-travel rigs.

Paired with a 160mm fork and 29in wheels, the Ripmo’s chassis rolls confidently through root webs, rocky steeps, and off-camber chutes. The steep 76° seat tube puts you in a powerful climbing position, while the slack 64.9° head angle and long reach provide stability and control at speed. The full carbon frame is engineered for stiffness and lightweight strength, with internal cable routing and a threaded bottom bracket to ease long-term maintenance.

This XT build hits the sweet spot of performance and value—featuring Shimano’s legendary 12-speed drivetrain and 4-piston brakes for precise shifting and predictable stopping. Ibis's in-house aluminum wheels deliver reliable strength and trail-tuned compliance. For riders who want a one-bike solution for race day, backcountry epics, and everyday rowdy laps, the Ripmo XT offers top-tier versatility without compromise.
