The Hakka MX is our answer to the Swiss Army Knife. It’s the bike we’d choose if, heaven forbid, we could only have one bike.
The Hakka MX is a gravel bike. It’s also a cross bike and a road bike. We’ve logged a few bike packing trips on the Hakka too.
You can outfit the bike with 27.5 mountain bike wheels, where it’ll accept up to a 2.1” tire.
In 700c mode, it’ll accommodate very nicely tires from 23c to over 40c.
With the hydraulic brakes being so good on CX/road/gravel bikes now, coupled with the ability to run big-volume big-traction tires, this bike is a total blast on dirt (especially fast flowing singletrack).

The Radivist “Call it a “gravel,” “cross,” “all-road,” or just a “road” bike, the Hakka MX is whatever you want it to be, whether that’s one of the above, or all. It’s a lightweight, snappy, well thought-out, modern update to a timeless classic that fits right in with Ibis’ current mountain bike lineup. It shreds on the new 27.5″ wheel option and even though I’ve yet to strap bags on it, would make for a worthy dirt road bikepacking tourer.” Read the full article here.
Bike Rumor “This is a bike I could see myself grabbing almost any time I wasn’t riding my full suspension mountain bikes. Trip to the store? Yes. Gravel ride? Definitely. Cyclocross training? Sure, with 700×33 wheels and tires. Group rides? Why not…Barring a straight up race bike, the new Ibis Hakka MX might just be the only bike you need with drop bars.” Read the full article here.
