Summary
The Ibis Ripmo is celebrated for its outstanding all-around performance, blending climbing efficiency with downhill prowess. Its DW-Link suspension and updated geometry offer a balanced, confident ride across a variety of terrains. While it excels in versatility and build quality, some note its weight and the need for shock tuning as minor drawbacks.
Outstanding all-around performance
Excellent climber with efficient DW-Link suspension
Confident and composed downhill
Versatile across a wide range of speeds and terrains
High-quality build and components
A touch on the heavy side
Float X2 rear shock takes some time to dial in
Maxxis Assegai EXO+ tires might be a little heavy
Ibis took everything we already loved about the Ripmo and made it better.
Outdoor Gear LabThis aggressive trail bike climbs shockingly well and maintains the energetic and sporty feel that was one of the hallmarks of the original.
Outdoor Gear LabThe Ripmo V2 is an even more confident and capable descender than its predecessor.

The Ibis Ripmo AF, a playful long-travel trail bike with a strong build kit, has become a cult classic, though its lively ride divided reviewers between enjoyment and instability.
Great value, especially for a traditional B2B brand
Poppy and playful ride-feel
Surprisingly efficient climber/pumper for a long travel trail bike
Not as planted or composed as most bikes in the category
Marzocchi Bomber Z1 Coil didn’t jive with the bike’s energetic demeanor

We have a few solid rides in on the Ripmo V3 and can already tell that the bike hits the all mountain nail square in the head.

Lower prices, new colors, and (finally) a UDH derailleur hanger makes the Ibis Ripmo AF a little more current.
Jan 2024 · Ibis Cycles
Both the Ripmo AF and Ripley AF models now feature SRAM’s Universal Derailleur Hanger.

We let rip on the rowdy, alloy-framed, keenly priced enduro/trail mountain bike from one of the original MTB disruptors
Excellent DW link suspension
Sorted frame feel and geometry
Plush, controlled, DVO coil-shock
Seven-year frame warranty
Eclectic but well curated components
Fork needs more tuning than some
No internal storage
No geometry adjustment

The Ripmo AF is burly for a trail bike, but you won’t have any worries going out for an all-day pedal thanks to the DW-link rear end.

Rebuilding your mountain bike with some upgraded components is a great way to get some more life out of an otherwise great bike. Join me for what I consider a “Dejavu build” of my Ibis …
