Ripley SL XTR Di2 Carbon Wheel Mountain Bike

Ibis manufactures the Ripley SL frame at its solar-powered Watsonville facility, and the XTR Di2 build pairs that frame with S28 Carbon rims on Industry 9 Hydra hubs for the lineup's lowest rotating weight. The same 117mm-travel dw-link platform carries over from the rest of the lineup, holding traction through rough terrain without sacrificing pedaling support on the way up. That same size-specific approach extends to geometry and kinematics too, keeping ride feel consistent whether the frame is a Small or an Extra Large.

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"XTR's 9-45T cassette trades outright climbing range for tighter steps between gears, so each shift moves me a smaller jump, and I stay closer to my ideal cadence. That precision pays off on a downcountry ride, where holding speed through singletrack matters more than grinding up the steepest fire road."

Heads up! We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning, and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearhead® Experts are always here to help.
