Singletracks readers and Ibis fans everywhere know that the Ripley V5 delivers an unmatched level of performance and value, and now we have the trophy to prove it!
The Ibis Ripley V5 has won the 2025 Trail Bike of the Year award from Singletracks.com. Thanks to everyone who voted and helped make this happen, we appreciate your support.
The Ripley went head-to-head with some of the best bikes on the market over three rounds, and in the end riders chose the Ripley as their ‘if I only had one bike’, do-it-all winner. With 130mm of DW-Link rear suspension travel (140mm front), a beautiful carbon frame, the best-in-class STOW frame storage, Fox Factory suspension, and the versatility to make it into a Ripmo the Ripley is the definitive trail bike. Ibis fans have always known this, and now everyone else knows it too!
