2008 Ibis Silk SL Ultegra
That NEW Ultegra SL is sweet and oh so lightweight too. Take a look at the rest of the kit, our 3D forged stem and post, 7075 bars and one of the nicest saddles on the planet. We’re liking the Easton wheels a lot (which is why we spec’d them).

2008 Ibis Silk SL Force
SRAM has been nipping at the heels of Shimano and Campy for some time now. Now they’re nipping a bit higher, somewhere near their ‘taint’ which should have those other guys worried. The unique shifters are super easy to get used to, the rest of the group works beauty (Scot really likes the comfortable levers) it’s lighter than Dura-Ace and you save some dough to boot. Ain’t competition grand?

2008 Ibis Silk SL Red
SRAM raises the bar just a little bit more. Or lowers it if you prefer the limbo. Uh, does a complete bike weight of 14 lbs sound good to you? That’s 6.36KG for you metric lovers. You can eat more dessert if you buy this bike. Simply Red
