His dedication alone is enough to warrant considering an Ibex, never mind the fact that the bikes themselves are incredible values. I have two and couldn't find complaint in either even if you wanted to pay me to do so. Jack is one of the only truly stand up guys I’ve encountered in the entire bike industry.

Trust me they do not pay me. Ur obviously one of those that needs a name brand bike or else u think its crap. Find me a bike for $1200 that will out-perform the zone fr-1. U wont be able to find one. Maybe ibex's next freeride model will be better than the zone. But thats it. I bought an ibex zone fr-1 last summer and i love it. Trust me they do not pay me.

I know a lot of Ibex riders and none of them are paid. Just spreading the word about good bikes and good company... There's been too many bogus reviews floating around even on mtbr which the mods have taken cared of and banned the IP adress... You wouldnt happen to be one of those guys now would you???

They are known to market to noobies who know little about bikes. I would recommend staying away from Ibex, and if anything test ride at your local bike shop first before buying anything online.

Note that the rear pivot is above the dropout, unlike a Horst link (Specialized FSR or Diamondback XSL). Being related to the V-Link is not a bad thing, by the way - I ride a 1998 model and love it.
