THE RIPCORD

The Ripcord has been taking kids to the next level for years, and this redesign will surely turn it up to 11. The Ripcord has evolved to share the best features of our adult bikes, utilizing our Giddy Up linkage design and vertical shock layout. The new kinematic layout allows riders to have supple suspension feel with high enough air pressure to ensure shocks have proper damping and the same range of tuning that we get on our adult trail bikes. The travel also increased from 100mm to 130mm, giving riders more capability and forgiveness in bike parks and sidewalk kickers alike. We were able to increase the travel without increasing standover from the original model, which inspires confidence and fits a wider range of riders. The Ripcord has a 365mm reach, 65 degree headtube angle, and 395mm chainstays. The new frame has internal dropper post routing and comes equipped with a dropper from the get go.
