RIP V Frame Preorder

Description

The Reichmann Engineering RIP has its place in the German downhill race scene for more than 12 years. Numerous further developments and the constant search for the perfect kinematics and geometry have made this unique bike what it is: the ultimate downhill weapon.

We send the RIP into the next evolutionary stage. After the RIP IV now follows the further refined RIP V. As the naming already suggests, the bike builds on its predecessor RIP IV.
Numerous detail improvements adorn the RIP V: For example, the bearing incl. the axles was completely revised. The additional shock linkage, which has been available since the RIP III, has been implemented in a less complicated way, so that the progression can now be adjusted from the outside without dismantling any parts. The rear swingarm receives a redesign to eliminate previously existing stress peaks while increasing torsional stiffness.
