Along with a new brand identity, Ibis is expanding their lineup with an ebike. Yes, an ebike. A big, burly, beast of an ebike.
The first Ibis ebike is finally here. Technically though, it’s not their first. During the development process, Ibis created two completely different prototype ebikes. Ultimately, the team felt that they weren’t good enough to wear the Ibis badge, so the bikes were scrapped entirely – and at great cost to Ibis.
Apparently, part of the solution to this problem can be found in the Metaverse – or something along those lines. During a late presentation after dinner, Ibis CEO Hans Heim broke out a VR headset and gave us a glimpse at the Oso frame in Virtual Reality. I wish we could show you what I saw inside, but imagine a frame that can be manipulated however you’d like, even making it so big that you can ‘walk’ through the inside.
Up front, the Oso is equipped with a 170mm travel Fox 38 suspension fork. Want more? The frame can also run up to a 190mm travel forkThat was actually more complicated to allow than it sounds and was the impetus behind another design feature – the side-mount battery. There’s a tremendous amount of force that a 190mm dual crown suspension fork puts on the downtube of the bike. Not exactly something you want to then have to cut a giant hole in.
Also key to the Bosch decision was the introduction of their e-MTB mode – essentially an automatic power delivery mode that increases assist when you need it, and decreases it when you don’t. This is what provides the “uphill flow” as Bosch puts it, or for Ibis – “downhill both ways.”
