I finally finished building my Ibis RipMo V2!! It's hard to believe it's been a year since I last had a RipMo in my quiver. Up until 2020, the RipMo was undeniably my favorite bike but after I sold my RipMo V1 at the beginning of 2020 in preparation for the new RipMo V2 the bike industry experienced a huge boom!
Through most of 2020 and into 2021 both parts and bikes have become a bit hard to find, and with so many people loving the new RipMo V2 I waited in line for mine! In the mean time I built up my Ripley and rode it, only for that bike to become the best bike I have ever owned (who knew short travel bikes were so fun).
The Ripley holds a very special place in my heart and it still is a bike I grab for a lot of rides! But even with this new found love for the Ripley I still couldn't shake the desire for more travel and that is where my new RipMo came into the picture. I could not be more stoked!!

Hi, Mo. I notice you are riding an x-large frame. I am in the market to upgrade from my 2013 mojo HD size large. Ever since I bought it, I always felt it was too small for me. Unfortunately, due to limited availability and no access to demoing due to Covid, I am unable to test ride and x-large Ripmo. I’m 6 feet tall with the wing span of 6’4. I’m curious on your thoughts whether an x-large frame would be best for me.
