MRP RIbbon Air 29

MRP RIbbon Air 29

The Ribbon is designed for enduro racing and aggressive trail riding.

The goal in designing the Ribbon was seemingly impossible: building on the success of the heralded Stage, create a fork with higher performance, more adjustability, more features, all at a significantly lower weight. Those incredible demands meant we had to reimagine elements like casting design, reconfigure damper architecture, and completely retarget performance goals. The result is not just the best fork MRP have ever produced, its the new industry benchmark.

 

THE DETAIL

MRP's award-winning all-mountain and enduro forks feature stout 35mm chassis, twin-tube dampers, and the highly-adjustable FulFill air-spring system.

Pinkbike's 2017 Suspension Product of the Year, the Ribbon (air), is the king of the 35mm class. 

FullFill air-spring system with independently adjustable positive and negative air-chambers for greater tunability.
New EssenTTial twin-tube, bladder-free damper utilizing a low-pressure IFP.
Outcast arch design with forward-facing weight reliefs to mitigate mud build up.
PSST pressure-relief valves that quickly and easily bleed off excess pressure in the lowers caused by elevation and temperature changes.
"Boost" spacing and 35mm stanchions.
