Ibis - Complete Bikes, Frames, & Parts

Let's talk about the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame. Not the one with a museum and a trophy case in Crested Butte. We're talking about a more personal one -- the one that each of us carries in our minds. what's in yours? Ours is comprised of three bikes total: The Wicked Fat Chance, the Bridgestone MB-0, and the Ibis Mojo. All of them are circa-early 90's. All of them are steel hardtails. All of them were <em>must-have</em> frames back in the day because they reflected all the right obsessions: Welds and paint and tubing and the perfect harmony of function with appearance. Fat Chance. Bridgestone. Ibis. they're three companies with a massive collective legacy. it's not just because of the technical innovation they developed some 15 years ago. it's not just because of the mass arousal they inflicted upon the mountain bike world. it's mostly because of the spectacular ways each company collapsed as the sport went from being a niche to a cultural phenomenon.  And of these three brands, which one isn't like the others? it's <strong>Ibis</strong>. Why? Because unlike the still-defunct Fat Chance and Bridgestone, Ibis was resurrected in 2005. The new Ibis is here in full effect. They've left Sonoma County for Santa Cruz, but geography aside what made Ibis so beloved is no less in effect now. Their OCD on best-of-the-best materials is just as fiery: What was butted steel and Ti back in early 90's has morphed into <a href=&quot;http://www.ibiscycles.com/tech/technology/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;>a fixation with carbon</a>. The man who IS the brand, OG Ibis founder Scot Nicol, is still at the helm. And the Ibis vibe -- that twisted joy that once brought us Moron tubing, hand job cable stops, and toe jam pump pegs -- one peek at <a href=&quot;http://www.ibiscycles.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;>the Ibis website </a>proves it's their corporate guiding light.  The Ibis lineup covers every conceivable need -- the Tranny is spot-on for cross-country racing and/or single-speeding, the dw-link Mojo is destined to be an all time classic trail/all-mountain bike, and the Hakkalugi is set to impose itself on the 'cross course.
