Ripley V5<\/b> retains the lively character of its predecessors while building on it with a series of technical improvements that place it at the very top of the trail bike category. Now with a choice of 29-inch or MX (29\u201d\/27.5\u201d) wheels, internal storage, and even more progressive geometry, the Ripley is ready for anything\u2014from everyday rides to challenging technical trails. With 130 mm of rear travel combined with 140 mm of front travel and an efficient DW-Link suspension system, it remains fast, playful, and reliable on all terrains.<\/p>\n
The bike\u2019s geometry is fully tailored to each size\u2014from the seat tube angle to the chainstay length and bottom bracket height. New to the lineup is the \u201cextra-medium\u201d (size 3)<\/b> size, which bridges the gap between the most common rider heights. This way, regardless of your build, you\u2019ll find the optimal riding position and the perfect balance between handling and comfort.<\/p>\n
The DW-Link suspension remains the foundation of the Ripley\u2019s performance\u2014responsive with every pedal stroke, yet exceptionally smooth during fast descents and consecutive impacts. The kinematics are specific to each size, so pedaling is equally efficient for both shorter and taller riders.<\/p>\n
Internal storage compartment<\/b> in the down tube lets you stow tools, snacks, or spare parts directly in the frame\u2014no backpacks or extra bags needed. The latch system operates smoothly even in mud and cold, and while wearing gloves. The included bags, created in collaboration with the sustainable brand Cotopaxi<\/b>, are colorful, durable, and made from recycled materials\u2014each one is unique.<\/p>\n
The frame is made from premium carbon fiber and features fully internal cable routing, rubberized protectors on the down tube and chainstay, and additional protection for a quiet and worry-free ride.<\/p>\n
