Description
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:”The Ripley AF Deore is the kind of bike that makes every ride fun. It’s lightweight for an aluminum frame, playful in the corners, and efficient on climbs thanks to the DW-Link suspension. The 130mm Fox Performance Float 34 fork and 120mm rear travel strike a great balance between agility and capability. Paired with reliable Shimano Deore shifting and 2. 4-inch Maxxis tires, this bike is dialed for fast, flowy singletrack and technical sections alike.”The Ripley AF Deore delivers everything we love about the carbon Ripley but in a more rugged and budget-friendly aluminum package. Designed with a 130mm Fox Performance Float 34 fork and 120mm of DW-Link rear travel, this trail bike balances efficiency with playfulness, making it perfect for everything from tight switchbacks to high-speed descents. Its modern geometry-a 65. 5-degree head tube angle and short chainstays-keeps handling sharp and confident. Shimano’s Deore 12-speed drivetrain ensures smooth, precise shifting, while powerful 2-piston hydraulic brakes provide controlled stopping power on technical terrain. The Maxxis DHR2 and Dissector tires grip confidently in loose and packed conditions, giving us the traction we need to push harder through turns. With the Ripley AF, every trail becomes an invitation for adventure.
