Default ibis mojo

who has one, how do you have it set up.
do you like it? how does it ride?
they look like that can be built up crazy light.
how do they climb? do you find it a solid race f/s bike?
i'd like to hear anyone's rider experience.

I rode one in a 24hour race. They are awesome. You can go to the Bike co in lake forest and they have demo ibis mojo's. The dw link works extreamly well. I have an rfx turner and after riding the mojo i'm thinking of getting rid of the turner. They turn great and the dw link soaks everything up on the downhill. It is a fun bike, and i wouldn't hesitate on buying one. But the best thing to do is demo one at the bike co, they have all sizes available. 949 470 1099 is the co's number. Good luck.

Well, obviously you don't have the RFX set up right.

BTW, I'm calling Dave!

Cal Coast Cycles in San Diego has a demo fleet of them. Give them a call, ask for Charlie.

All I have to say it's damn sexy and like the English guy who was busted for humping his bike you just might catch a few locally riding it dirty.

Just like what Dino Said,
"It's a DW-Link! Enough Said!"

I used to ride an 05 MKIII Expert. I love it. I was a DW-link Convert after that. However, I wanted to go lighter so I went with the Mojo.

I've had the bike since march and have ridden it to death.

Although its very similar to the MKIII there are few differences.

The main difference is that the Mojo climb way better than the MKIII on 140. I didn't expect that at all since the MKIII climbed like a goat. Other than that both bike climb about the same.

In the decent, the Mojo killed the MKIII. not even close. You can definetely noticed the difference in the head angle.

I don't do any race so I don't know how well it will be for racing.

However, I do know that you can get a Medium Mojo built down to 21lbs!!!!

I have mine at 30lbs now. I basically transfered just about everything(seat post is the only thing that didnt work) from my MKIII to my Mojo
