la mia e' circa 12,6 12,8 e ho fatto miracoli.....
( peso con pedali doppio uso ).....
Se non sbaglio però tu hai la versione Comp in ALU mentre quella di Carlo è full carbonio. Ecco spiegata la differenza di peso. [emoji6]
Su cerchio 35... ibis usa approccio diverso... questa dietro e' una 27mezzo... non una 29...
Bici cortissima... pur avendo un reach da 450 in XL e' lunga 1180...
Levy: What is the reasoning for not making the Mojo 3 29er-compatible by way of a small "flip chip" or geometry adjustment that would compensate for the change in overall wheel diameter? It seems like it would open the bike up to more consumers, wouldn't it?
Nicol: We were looking at making the Ripley both a 29er and 27.5+ bike because plus tires were supposed to be about the same size as 29er tires. That's not what actually happened when we got out our giant calipers and started measuring the tires that we were sent. We found that all of the tires measured smaller than what the tire companies said they would. And when we rode a bunch of the plus tires, all the ones we liked were the shorter ones. Another thing that's not talked about much is that tires have their own sag, which is a real number at our preferred 15 - 18 psi pressures. When you measure the static bottom bracket height, it's slightly higher with the 2.8'' plus tires. When you measure bottom bracket height with your weight on the bike, it's the same as with 2.3" wide 27.5 tires.
When we realized this real-world scenario, we decided not to convert the Ripley and looked at the Mojo 3 frame instead. It works really well with "regular" 27.5 tires, which means you can choose different tire sizes with the same wheelset and no frame or fork modifications. Note that the 2.8'' tires are an inch shorter than the 29er tires. In order to fit 29er tires, the chainstays would have to get longer. So the bottom line is that it's a better 27.5+ bike because it's not also a 29er.
Su mtbr ibis sostiene che oltre i 2.8 il plus ha solo svantaggi... la deriva data dal volume eccessivo..
POINTING IT DOWN HILL
Both the 2.8 Schwalbe and the 2.5” Minion WT tires feel very fast on this bike while descending. So we set out to see if one tire was better than the other in a quantifiable way. We did speed runs down local trails comparing one tire setup to another not just in terms of feel but also for time. While both offer tons of traction, the tires feel different on the trail: The Minion WT’s are very stable and gives a supreme confidence to the rider. Banging through berms and sharp direction changes are where this tire sets itself apart. The 2.8” Schwalbe, with its bigger casing and air volume, loves to plow through anything on really rough terrain. Although the tires felt totally different, we were surprised that they actually gave the exact same times on multiple runs, they just got there in totally different ways. The Maxxis would be faster in directional changes and windier sections, while the max speed would be higher with the plus tires. It really comes down to personal preference and riding style to determine who picks which tire.
One final note on our the plus setup for the Mojo 3: ln in terms of downhill capability, on all but the biggest hits, it feels like the 130mm travel Mojo 3 with 2.8” tires is roughly equal to the 150mm travel Mojo HD3 with 2.3” tires. The big tires make the bike descend like a bigger bike. The difference is the Mojo 3 handles uphill and corners better due to lighter overall weight and lower BB. It’s a ripper.
la mojo 3 mi piace perchè non è la solita 29" adattata, bravi Ibis!
Non è una 29er adattata ma una 27 mezzo adattata,.
Il passaggio ruote con le gomme plus mi sembra davvero limitato !
