Whether it's long days with thousands of feet of elevation gain and loss or multiple laps at the bike park, the Ibis Ripmo AF is a solid choice, and we are always stoked to throw a leg over one for its efficient suspension platform, sturdy aluminum frame, and dual 29-inch wheels. When we are looking to take our enduro riding to the next level but can't afford to spend an arm and a leg on a new ride, the Ibis Ripmo AF comes in clutch as an affordable, all-metal version of the beloved Ibis Ripmo. This year, the Ripmo AF is back and features the same aluminum frame and aggressive geometry we love, but is now available in two new colors and a frame equipped with an SRAM UDH universal derailleur hanger for easy replacements. Designed for aggressive trail or enduro riding, the Ripmo features 147mm of DW-Link suspension to plow through rough sections and easily take small drops and jumps.

The 12-speed Shimano SLX drivetrain gives us a huge 10-51t gear range, while the Ibis Blackbird Send 29er wheelset gives us lightweight, durable performance and keeps us rolling smoothly. Marzocchi Bomber suspension gives us quality performance while keeping the price down, with a Bomber Z1 Coil fork up front sporting 160mm of travel to give us great ride tuna...
