Ibis Mojo HD3 Carbon X01 Eagle Complete Mountain Bike 2017

The 2017 Ibis Mojo HD3 Carbon X01 Eagle Complete Mountain Bike embodies just about everything we could want from a modern enduro sled. It's long geometry shreds steep drops with glee, while the boost axle width bumps up stiffness and opens up clearance, netting an even more responsive ride than its predecessor and accommodating tire widths ranging from 2. 3 to a plush, plus sized 2. 8in. Ibis caps off this build with SRAM's superlative one by 12 speed X01 Eagle drivetrain, powerful Guide RSC hydraulic brakes, and a Fox Transfer dropper post for sure handling over all manner of terrain.

The Mojo HD3 drops in fast on the down side and gets up and goes when the trail kicks up. As an added touch, the shock tune and suspension keep the bottom bracket height at the sag point the same across tire sizes. Ibis stands by threaded bottom brackets with the Mojo, dismissing any proprietary press fit systems in favor of a rock solid, dirt simple standard that will last for ages. Dual row angular contact bearings on the drive side of the linkage require zero preload adjustment and dramatically reduce play compared to standard, sealed bearings, further bolstering the bike's lateral stability and your ...
