How it compares
On travel, the Ibis Ripmo AF is right where the “all-mountain bike” category usually is: 160 mm up front against a median of 160 mm from 15 bikes. The rear offers 150 mm, 10 mm less than the front. Within Ibis’s mountain bikes, it sits between the Ibis Ripley AF and the Ibis HD6 on travel. Ibis builds the frame from aluminium.
With the Check manually, the Ripmo AF build has a coil shock – here the spring rate determines SAG.
Setup notes for this spec
- Coil shock (Check manually): SAG is determined by the spring rate. Only add enough preload to stop the spring from rattling.
Target SAG for the Ibis Ripmo AF
The table converts the recommended SAG percentages into millimetres, so you can check them with the O-ring directly on the stanchion and on the shock shaft. Adjust the air pressure until the value is right. If Ibis specifies its own target SAG for your model, that takes priority.
160 mm fork, 60.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 27 mm | 24 % = 14.4 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 32 mm | 28 % = 16.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 35 mm | 30 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 32 mm | 27 % = 16.2 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
The values apply to 2.40″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi).
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.43 bar (21 psi) | 1.63 bar (24 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.55 bar (22 psi) | 1.75 bar (25 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.67 bar (24 psi) | 1.87 bar (27 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.79 bar (26 psi) | 1.99 bar (29 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.91 bar (28 psi) | 2.11 bar (31 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.03 bar (29 psi) | 2.23 bar (32 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.15 bar (31 psi) | 2.35 bar (34 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
The sticker on the fork (or on the shock) and the manufacturers’ setup charts give you a first pressure. Our calculator is more precise and suggests rebound too – always check the result via SAG.
