The Ibis DV9 is a versatile carbon fiber hardtail, designed for everything from trail rides to pump track sessions, and even racing. It boasts lightweight construction, modern geometry, and is engineered to the same high standards as all Ibis bikes, offering exceptional performance at an accessible price.
GEOMETRY
Inspired by the World Cup-winning Exie USA, the DV9 features a playful 66.5° head angle and 425mm chainstays. The low standover height and size-specific seat tube angles ensure a comfortable fit and efficient riding position for all riders.
TIRE CLEARANCE
The DV9 accommodates both 2.6” tires for a cushy ride and 2.25” tires for speed, catering to different riding preferences.
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Routing cables internally is now a breeze, thanks to internal tubes that simplify the process, eliminating the need for special tools or frustration.
FRAME PROTECTION
With thick rubber protection on the downtube and chainstays, the frame is shielded from damage and noise. An adjustable top guide keeps your chain secure.
2X BOTTLE CLEARANCE
Every size frame of the DV9 fits two water bottles within the front triangle, even the small sizes.
PERFORMANCE MEETS AFFORDABILITY
Ibis Cycles believes in providing high-quality bikes for all budgets. The DV9 was inspired by Ibis CEO Hans Heim’s experience at a high school mountain bike race, leading to the creation of a fast, lightweight, and versatile bike that’s affordable for young athletes.
LIFETIME WARRANTY
Ibis stands by their bikes with a simple lifetime warranty: if it’s their fault, they’ll fix it.
