"Ibis builds the Ripley SL by hand in a solar-powered facility in Watsonville, California, and the sub-5-pound frame that comes out of it reflects the control that in-house manufacturing allows. At 117mm of rear travel, dw-link keeps the pedaling zone efficient without feeling harsh when the trail turns rough, so short travel doesn't mean a stiff ride. What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I shift mid-stroke on a punchy climb without missing a beat, wireless XT Di2 doesn't care if I'm mashing the pedals when I ask for the next gear. That's not something I could say about a mechanical derailleur under the same load.""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."
