The IBIS RIPMO AF BIKE Review and First Ride in Pisgah National Forest on Turkey Pen Trails

It's New Bike Day for SAMTB and it's a big Day! I've been dreaming about the Ibis Ripmo since I first watched Brian Kennedy on his YouTube channel BKXC ripping around the world on his Rimpo. Then IBIS did the unthinkable, they created an aluminum version of this killer bike and cut the price in half of its Carbon Cousin. SO here it is my sort of detailed and nearly gushing review of the New Ibis Ripmo AF in NX build. If you are in NC and your looking to get your hands on this bike, give Squatch Bikes and Brew a call, they will take great care of you and your Ripmo.
