Do you have an Ibis Movie?
This is really more of a NAQ, that is a never asked question. But we do have a movie, and you can see it here >

What happened to the original Ibis?
Good question. Not sure we even know. Check out Where you been at, Homes? on a website near you. Actually, on this website.

Can I get shock parts for my SilkTi/BowTi/Szazbo/Ripley?
Our good friend John, over at Castellano designs castellanodesigns.com has graciously accepted the task of keeping track of all bouncy bits for the pre-2000 Ibis bikes. John designed all these bikes, and either built or spec'd the shocks.

Do you have frame decals for my Mojo? Or any other Ibis model?
Get yourself over to chuckibis.com where you can learn all about and purchase Ibis decals dating back to the first models in the early 1980?s.

Can I get my Ibis frame repainted?
Yes, any competent frame painter can do it. Our friends the Sycips do ours when they need refreshing. Jay and Jeremy are now running the powdercoating facility that has painted all Ibises since 1998. So they have in stock a lot of the original Ibis colors. They can get decals directly from Scot Nicol, or you can go to Scot's Ibis decal site: www.chuckibis.com

Where can I get my Ibis frame repaired?
For all pre-2005 Ibis bikes, we recommend you find a framebuilder who works in whatever material your original Ibis was made. We would not hesitate to recommend the Sycip Brothers, all their information is in the preceding question.

If you need some love applied to your titanium Ibis, we also recommend you call Steve Potts. He's a master with the tig torch and a perfectionist when it comes to working on things made of metal. 415-663-1974

Can you or I or somebody put disc braze-ons on my SilkTi?
Yes. John Castellano has been working on retrofitting SilkTi's with disc mounts. John designed, engineered and manufactured the mounts, and Steve Potts puts them on. Get a hold of either one of them for more info. Their contact info is above.

Will you have a sense of humor like the old Ibis?
In a word, no. In five words, my lips hurt real bad.

What does FAQ stand for?
In the case of all of you inquiring about steel 29er rigid fixed gear unicycles: Frequently Annoying Questions - just kidding!!!!

What kind of lube do you use?
Short answer: depends on the application. Another short answer: we're not going there.

Will you be making recumbents?
Currently, we have no plans to make recumbents. And if we did, permission granted to pull our toenails out one by one with pliers.

Why use Carbon Fiber instead of Steel, Ti and Aluminum?
We think that all those materials are good for construction of bikes. Ibis has made bikes out of all these materials before, and might do so again. For now, we're liking the results we get with carbon. Read our little treatise here.
Scot Nicol, founder of Ibis, wrote a 7 part series on bicycle metallurgy for VeloNews back in the day. At the end of the series, one of his conclusions was that soon it would be carbon's day in the sun. We think that day has arrived. Read Scot's series here, if you're having trouble falling asleep.

What about the durability of Carbon Fiber?
We've decided that this question warrants its own little section of our website. So please go here to find out what we have to say about the durability of our bikes.

Are you going to make the SilkTi again?
John Castellano, our good friend who designed all of our suspension bikes prior to 2002, is bringing the SilkTi back to life. For those of you looking for 29ers, this is your chance to get one. Again, www.castellanodesigns.com.

Is Scot or Chuck Involved in the new Ibis?
Both of them. He's manning the welding torch now that we aren't welding anything. Makes him feel important. We let him clean the toilets now and again. Oh and he wrote most of the drivel on this website. Scot is one of the four owners of the new company. Find out about the others here.

How does the DW Link system work?

What are the build specs for my new Ibis (fork length, tire size front derailler, etc)
For Silk Carbon build specs go here
For Mojo Carbon build specs go here

Do you have a brochure?
No. This website is our brochure for now, but if you have any further questions or want more info, call or email, we'd be happy to help.
