NBD!

After months of research and annoying posts in this subreddit about which bike I should get, I finally pulled the trigger on the Ripley AF. Took it out today on a little 8 mile loop I’ve done dozens of times on my trek Roscoe and was surprised to see I shaved nearly 5 minutes off my time according to Strava. So far I love this bike. Came with upgraded xt brakes which was nice. Will take a couple rides to dial in and adjust the shifting and suspension but so far so good!
