Battle Of The Mixed Wheel Trail Bikes - Ripmo VS Bronson

If you've never tried or even considered a mixed wheel mullet bike, this video is for you!! I put the new 3rd generation, 2025 Ibis Ripmo into the 27.5 suspension "flip-chip" setting and been riding it back-to-back with the 4th generation Santa Cruz Bronson. All I can say is I'm in mixed wheel trail bike heaven! The smaller back wheel is ideal for trail bike terrain and speeds! You can pick up the new Ibis Ripmo from Salt Cycles... they have them in stock now!! Give them a call today: 801-943-8502 I demo'd the Bronson from Go-Ride bike shop and it's currently on sale!
