The best part about Revel is that they are same or better as a Yeti or an Ibis but like a grand cheaper!

Was at Revel a week ago. That Ranger is an absolutely gorgeous bike. They were humbled when I told them I was considering between a Yeti and themselves...Then I went to Yeti and couldn't even talk to anyone about their bikes. Guess which brand I'm leaning towards now?

is it strange that i didn't really have TOO much interest in this bike...until they mentioned it had 3 water bottle mounts? LMAO.

this "new, little" bike company is jam packed with veterans. i hope Revel and GG take over the industry. as such, i got one for myself, a birthday treat. not fond of that green tho, i got the black (de la coal).

Someone please give Ryan a chair! The-forward-knee-bend-dance-thing.

This is a bike I'm curious about.. but is it worth replacing my SB100 for it.. 🤔

Honestly curious - the rock that got into the chainstay - would Revel actually warranty that? Is that a “manufacturing” issue or a rider error?

hopefully next year they release this color on their rascal line. Also hoping they'll be making their bikes out of that new sustainable wonder material they're working on. (pssst also in 27.5")

They ruined the bike while testing it? Jeez...

Will epic evo make the cut or is it too XC?

Travis gets to shred, but not get a word in, what gives? Great review, sounds like a compelling bike. Some top banter too :)

Bike mag always make the sensible reviews.

So much thought to designing of this frame. Really shows. But the cables running below the BB seems to be going against that.

Looks like a good climber. Good xc bike im sure. Got a rock stuck the other day on my genius luckily no damage really. My 2.8" hans. picked it up in the treads lol.

Interested to see some comparisons with other similar bikes like the Tall Boy 4.

Concerned about that frame issue -- did the rock crack the frame or just wear the paint away?

Looking for a bike like this for my son Christmas 🎄 gift. Hope to have one.

I'm looking at the "technology" page of Revel's website and see a couple photos of the layup process that shows a tech wearing, what appears to be, cotton gloves and also what appears to be ply bridging, major wrinkles, and such. Are those photos representative of the actual frame building process? Quite concerning , to say the least. Toray prepreg is fantastic, but I'm a bit concerned about Revel's layup process.

Is that Travis Engle or Mo Awesome? Hard to tell with all that flowing hair goodness

Has anyone tried using this for xc racing yet? I'm curious to know how it would handle at an actual race.
