Show us your Mountain/Gravel/Road Bike MTB - Rivian Style!

[DTown3011]

Since this is an adventure vehicle, I'm sure we have a lot of bikers on the forum - would love to see what bikes others are currently riding and plan to be using with their Rivian! I'll start, I'm a bit of a gear nut:

Yeti SB130 Lunch Ride
FOX Float DPX2 and FOX 36 Fork
SRAM AXS Drivetrain
absoluteBLACK Oval Chainring 30T
DT Swiss XMC 1200 Carbon Wheels
Maxxis Assegai Front/Aggressor Rear 29s
PNW Loam 200mm Dropper + PNW Grips
SDG Radar Saddle

Here are some photos and me riding Monarch Crest in Salida, CO last year:

My gravel bike is a bit of a work in progress - currently an OBED GVR with Di2 which I love, but might be moving back into a Cervelo Aspero which I rode for many years. Photo is my wife and I riding some gravel in Boulder, CO!

Stumpy Evo (S3). XX1 cassette, X01 derailleur, XTR brakes, HSR rotors, X2 shock, 36 Perf Elite fork. Assegai front, DHR rear. Nearly 500,000’ of climbing last year until I broke a rib, then my clavicle. (old bike pic attached)

Canyon Grizl aka Grape Ape as the gravel bike.

Looking forward to getting the plate out of my shoulder so I can start to ride something again.

My old girl, XL 2016 Intense Primer 29 (for sale soon), and my new girl, S6 (XXL) Specialized Stumpjumper Pro. I'm not normally a big brand rider, but the Specialized sale right now is too hard to pass up.

I've been looking at Canyons, the Grail has always been interesting to me!

Sorry no pics but:

Yeti ASR-C (last year of the frame) - too much fun to retire

Specialized Diverge - SRAM force with the suspension steerer tube or whatever Specialized calls it

Canyon Endurace - SRAM Red model basically stock

Ahhh....bike porn!

I've been riding a Revel Rascal for the last couple of years and love it, but wanted a bit more travel for the park days and chunk while still pedaling up the hills. This Revel Rail29 just arrived on Friday. More pics when she's ready to roll.

I built this Ellsworth Rogue 60 about 6 years go. It's basically an Enduro style setup (favors downhill, but still climbs fine) with 27.5 wheels, lots of travel and an 11 speed drive train. It's held up well over the years.

As a side note, I was the proud owner of one of the rarest bikes around - an Ibis bow-ti. I built it in 2000 and rode it for a few years, then stored it. Eventually I sold it to a museum. It was a very odd, beautifully strange design. Extremely light with a decent amount of suspension travel, but as MTB designs evolved, it became a bit dated from a performance standpoint.

Thats very cool, I'd love to know more about the Ibis and see more photos if you have them!

Here you go.

Ibis stopped making the frames in 2002. Total production was 269 units.

The whole frame was a titanium slinky. It was all very innovative. The small flat plate, long dual top tubes and flat center bar worked together to make the rear suspension work.

OMG that seat stay. If that bike didn’t say “Ibis” on it I would never trust it with my 210 lbs. What a creative design!

Wow, now THAT is unique!

My main steeds;
Mountain: Scott Spark AXS mounted up on my 89 FJ 62
Road: BMC Roadmachine SLR 01
Gravel: BMC URS LT - rural Wisconsin explorer/BWR rig

Only had my R1T for a month, certainly pics to come with bikes loaded up this spring.

Always wanted a URS…
