Newly Released Bikes General

The new Spot Mayhem 140 looks cool. Carbon frame, Ti leaf, sensible trailbike geo. Looks like a fun thing.

I watched an interview with the Ibis guy who was pretty insistent that you should stick to your normal size and not consider reach only.
The previous XL Ripmo AF was about the same as the Titan I rode which fitted well. Now the L is slightly bigger than the XL Titan. I really like it.
 
So it seems that Ripley and Ripmo are the same front and rear triangles, with just the little linkage bit (and build kit) to differentiate. I guess that partially explains it.

They will be selling the linkage bit aftermarket so you can have two bikes in one (with shock and fork swap) which is neat.
I'll bust out the old Fox Talas, it'll save me changing forks.

That has my interest.
 
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but that is an ugly bike.
Also " an irreverent, rebellious spirit" are not words that would usually be used to describe the big-S from what I have observed
 
Absolutely!

I should have bought mine years ago. No more damn phone in the pocket!

Doubt you could fit a larger phone in the Ripmo 3 in frame storage…
I had Kedon at Bike Bag Dude make one for me as soon as I got my Ripmo V1. But then, he'd done me up a bag for my HD3, so had an existing connection with him.

It keeps everything I need for 99% of rides, and SWAT Bibs or a fanny pack take care of extra water on longer rides if needed.
