The new Ibis stuff started arriving at OnePlanet's shop at Llandegla today.

This is a medium to be made up to a demo bike and they have a Large frame coming for stock...which I will buy ๐Ÿ˜›

I am in love....

Aargh - my eyes.

Utter filth.

Impending wedding has put a stop to those sort of dreams for me. Unfortunately ๐Ÿ˜†

still very tempted by one of these... I like Ibis ๐Ÿ™‚ Now if you want to see (what some Heathens may call) an 'ugly Ibis', feast your eyes on my Bow-ti

You can see the heritage between the two, or at least I can ๐Ÿ™‚

That Carbon Ibis is the frame equivalent of Jordan - I'm sure it will ride terrific and take you to new levels, but it looks brash and tacky and I wouldn't, even with yours!

Do those wooden supports come as standard ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ™‚

Thought they could make them more in keeping with the frame. ๐Ÿ˜›

Never been a fan of the mojo. Looks better anodised.

It's a bit Max Power. Nice frame but I'd want it painted with just a wee bit of carbon peeking through.

Not my idea of porn.

Whatever floats your boat though.

I like it a lot, but the raw carbon look best suits someone who can do it justice on the trails, or perhaps Michael Schumacher.

Ibis's existing colourways seem spot on, I'd be hard pressed to come up with more flattering hues.

I always hated the look of the Mojo in photos, but I was knocked out when I saw one in the flesh. Looks best in Orange tho.

I have a tranny in copper, I find the naked CF just too much (but ofc that's personal)

I would consider one of these (in fact have done) but 2 ibis' would make me too much of a fanboi I think

They (mojo) are a lovely ride though, a real all dayer in the yeti 575 mould. Would make a great marathon bike

My LBS (Head For The Hills in Dorking) have just started doing them - they've got a sort of French blue coloured one - looks very, very nice - light too!

they do look better in the flesh, though still a little 'garish' in the raw carbon, I prefer the stealth matte black finish myself, or plain white is very nice as well ๐Ÿ™‚

isn't the weave just a cosmetic layer to make it look how we imagine cf should look?

why are all the ibi so ****in ugly? the abundance of OS carbon bits makes the shock look tiny too.

never seen the appeal of carbon off road bikes, with the exception of super hero light XC hardtails for pure fireroad pacing.

I like some of the colours that the new Mojo comes in but the raw carbon look doesn't do it for me.

Carbon and Welsh slate - you can hear the weeping from here.

S'funny, I'm not fond of full suspension bikes at all, and my taste in styling runs to the classic/functional, but of all the f/s bikes on the market, the Ibis mojo is the one that I think looks outstanding,especially in green, or carbon, but almost tempts me into buying.
I never understand why so many 'pure' MTBers with awful positions and crap-looking bikes find it ugly
Only the lack of bottle fitting puts me off.
