Versatile Ripmo trail bike with carbon wheels, fast-engaging hubs, and dw-link suspension
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
“The S35 carbon wheels paired with Hydra hubs noticeably change how the Ripmo accelerates and handles rough terrain. Engagement is immediate, and the wider carbon rim profile offers excellent tire support. Combined with the Ripmo’s efficient suspension and refined geometry, this setup feels fast, controlled, and confidence-inspiring on demanding trails.”
The Ripmo is engineered to deliver consistent performance across a wide range of trail conditions, blending efficient pedaling with confident descending. Its dw-link suspension platform provides excellent anti-squat for climbing while remaining active under braking, creating a stable, predictable ride on technical terrain. With 160mm of front travel and 150mm in the rear, it strikes a versatile balance for aggressive trail riding.
This build elevates performance with Ibis S35 carbon rims and Industry Nine Hydra hubs. The wide rim profile enhances tire stability and cornering support, while the Hydra hub’s rapid engagement improves responsiveness when accelerating out of corners or navigating technical climbs. Mixed-wheel compatibility, size-specific suspension kinematics, and a progressive leverage curve further refine handling and expand shock compatibility.
Modern standards and thoughtful features round out the package. Internal frame storage offers secure, rattle-free carrying capacity, while a threaded bottom bracket, UDH compatibility, and generous tire clearance ensure long-term durability and easy serviceability. The Ripmo remains a highly adaptable trail bike, now paired with premium components to match its capability.
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 Gearheads are always here to help.
