The META SX V5 is driven before its ridden. The 165mm of travel is combined with our new Virtual Contact System (VCS) kinematics. Even more effective, it comes into its own when released in the bike park or on steep trails. This is a bike for riders looking for an enduro bike that feels as close to a DH bike as possible. META SX V5 RIDE The META SX V5 RIDE benefits from a duo of ROCKSHOX suspension. On the front, we feature the 170mm Zeb with a terrain-proof chassis and 38mm stanchions. It inherits the new DebonAir+ spring and the new Rush RC hydraulic cartridge. On the back, the Super Deluxe Select+. By tweaking the negative and positive air volumes, you can adapt it specifically to your tastes. The end-of-stroke travel is also better managed, and the additional cartridge increases the volume of oil for more consistency. It's SRAM for braking with a pair of DB8s. These new brakes are designed for intensive braking and limited maintenance thanks to the use of mineral oil. We equipped this META SX V5 RIDE with a SRAM NX EAGLE 12-speed drivetrain. The ultra-wide range helps make it possible to face all the steep and uneven terrain. Finally, SPANK Spike Race 33 rims because their solidity is already proven. We added MAXXIS Assegai EXO and Minion DHRII EXO+ tyres for the perfect combo. *Please note that bike specs are subject to change without prior notice.

Introducing the Exie for all. Sharing the same geometry and performance as the World Cup winning Exie USA, our newest offering is handbuilt in Vietnam. It's everything we love about our US made offering (albeit ~250g heavier) in a wallet-friendly build. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT ANGLES Whether you're rac­ing short track or on a mul­ti day epic, the Exie's seat tube angles allow you to har­ness your strongest mus­cles, while reduc­ing any potential knee or wrist strain.

We've also added fea­tures like a thread­ed bot­tom brack­et to help make any future main­te­nance easy. INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING Inter­nal cable rout­ing doesn't have to be a pain. We've added inter­nal tubes to our tubes, no pick­sets, flash­lights, or swear words required. 2.4" TIRE CLEARANCE You can run over­built, chunky tires; you can run light, big vol­ume fast tires, but what­ev­er you run, you're not lim­it­ed by width. 2X BOTTLE CLEARANCE The Exie has clear­ance for two water bot­tles inside the front tri­an­gle on every size frame.

We've also added fea­tures like a thread­ed bot­tom brack­et to help make any future main­te­nance easy. INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING Inter­nal cable rout­ing doesn't have to be a pain. We've added inter­nal tubes to our tubes, no pick­sets, flash­lights, or swear words required. 2.4" TIRE CLEARANCE You can run over­built, chunky tires; you can run light, big vol­ume fast tires, but whatever you run, you're not lim­it­ed by width. 2X BOTTLE CLEARANCE The Exie has clear­ance for two water bot­tles inside the front tri­an­gle on every size frame. INTEGRATED CHAIN GUIDE Drop the ham­mer, not your chain. LIFETIME WARRANTY If it's our fault, we'll fix it. Sim­ple as that.

Introducing the Exie for all. Sharing the same geometry and performance as the World Cup winning Exie USA, our newest offering is handbuilt in Vietnam. It's everything we love about our US made offering (albeit ~250g heavier) in a wallet-friendly build. SIZE SPECIFIC SEAT ANGLES Whether you're rac­ing short track or on a mul­ti day epic, the Exie's seat tube angles allows you to har­ness your strongest mus­cles, while reduc­ing any potential knee or wrist strain. We've also steep­ened the seat tube angles as the frames get larg­er, to allow rid­ers with dif­fer­ent inseams to achieve the same rid­ing positions. DW-LINK SUSPENSION Don't squan­der a sin­gle watt. Our dw-link sus­pen­sion plat­form offers incred­i­ble climb­ing effi­cien­cy and trac­tion along with plush, down­hill-crush­ing goodness. RIDE MORE, WRENCH LESS We use bush­ings where it makes sense and bear­ings where it doesn't. The IGUS bush­ings in our low­er link are lighter, stiffer, and vir­tu­al­ly main­te­nance free. We've also added fea­tures like a thread­ed bot­tom brack­et to help make any future main­te­nance easy. INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING Inter­nal cable rout­ing doesn't have to be a pain.

The Exie USA is a World-Cup capable cross-country race bike that flat out shreds. With a sub 2,000g frame weight and dw-link suspension, it offers a stunning combination of pedaling efficiency and downhill performance. We designed, built, and test­ed it in our Santa Cruz factory, which is pow­ered by the warm Cal­i­for­nia sunshine. RACE PROVEN Jen­ny Rissveds won the 2023 Lenz­er­hei­de XCC World Cup Cross Coun­try Event on the Ibis Exie, a bike we quite lit­er­al­ly made in our own back­yard here in North­ern California! BUILT BY US We build each Exie USA in our North­ern Cal­i­for­nia fac­to­ry. This gives us the utmost con­trol, which enables us to hit remark­able frame strength, stiff­ness, and weight tar­gets for this frame.
