All-Metal, All-Fun: Meet the New Ripmo AF & Ripley AF
We’re stoked to welcome two hitter aluminum trail bikes to the floor: the all-new Ibis Ripmo AF and Ripley AF. These bikes take everything riders love about the carbon versions—progressive geometry, coil compatibility, in-frame storage—and pack it into a tough, affordable aluminum frame that rides just as hard.
If you’ve been eyeing a high-performance trail or enduro bike without the carbon price tag, your moment has arrived.
Ripmo AF — Big Travel, Bigger Attitude
The Ripmo AF is built to handle everything from Squamish steeps to enduro race days and park laps. It’s aggressive, capable, and somehow still pedals like a trail bike. Here’s what you get:
-
160mm front / 150mm rear travel
-
DW-Link suspension for excellent climbing efficiency and plush descending
-
Flip chip compatibility for running a mullet setup (29" front, 27.5" rear)
-
Coil shock compatibility
-
In-frame storage with two included Ibis storage bags
-
Modern, progressive geometry built for confidence at speed
It’s everything you love about the Ripmo—just in metal. This bike is a workhorse with finesse, perfect for riders who want one bike to do it all. And with the AF frame, it’s more accessible than ever.
It’s fast. It’s capable. It’s metal… AF.
RIPLEY AF:
Ripley AF — Short Travel, Big Personality
The Ripley AF brings the fast, flickable fun of the carbon Ripley into a more rugged and budget-friendly aluminum package. It’s the perfect trail bike for riders who want efficient climbing, quick handling, and all-day capability.
Here’s what makes it tick:
-
140mm fork / 130mm rear travel
-
DW-Link suspension that keeps things lively and efficient
-
Confident geometry that’s quick and responsive without feeling twitchy
-
Mullet-friendly flip chips if you want to mix it up
-
Full 29" or 29/27.5" options
-
In-frame storage with two included tool/snack bags
Whether you’re a new rider looking for a quality build that won’t hold you back, or a seasoned trail vet who wants a playful all-rounder, the Ripley AF brings serious fun to every ride.
It’s fast. It’s fun. It’s unapologetically metal… AF.

Why We’re Fired Up
We love bikes that punch above their price point—and the Ripmo AF and Ripley AF do just that. These aren’t “budget bikes.” They’re performance-focused rigs for real riders who want to charge hard, explore deep, or just roll out on a trail bike that feels dialed right out of the box.
Come by the shop to check them out, sit on one, and get a feel for what “aluminum done right” looks like. Or, shop online and snag one before they disappear.
