Jeff. Looking at the occam and Ripley for my wife. Mainly trail ride but a pretty wide range of trails. She doesnt jump really. Does not like pedal strikes. Your thoughts on the 2 bikes?

@JeffKendallWeed

4 жыл бұрын

Hey R, thanks for the note! Ripley and Occam are both good, but I'd give the nod more towards the Occam for rougher trails, and more towards the Ripley for smoother stuff. The Occam has a higher up feel, and even though the BB on paper looks like a similar height, I've noticed far fewer pedal strikes on the Occam than on the Ripley. Occam has more traction, and much better suspension with the 36 fork/DPX2 shock, where as the Ripley is slightly more efficient. Ripley is XC/Trail, and Occam is solidly Trail. Ripmo/Rallon are more enduro.

Awesome story! They seem like a European version of Specialized?....LOL. How do you feel about the Occam Vs. Ripmo?

Even to this day, I feel the V1 Ripley is still very relevant. Then I finally pulled the trigger on a V1 Ripmo a month ago. I couldn't be happier with my decision. Overall, I think the Ripmo climbs as well as the Ripley but may be a more efficient pedaler due to the Geo and I get the increased stability I wish I had on my Ripley. Essentially, the Ripmo is like a Ripley on Steroids!
