Overview
About this bike
Niner's AIR 9 invites you to keep it fast thanks to hydroformed tubing that gives you a balanced, nuanced ride for optimum shred capabilities. The aluminum frame is fronted by a Fox 32 CTD Evolution fork with 100mm of terrain-swallowing travel, and thanks to the tapered steerer and thru axle, swooping through the trees and bombing down the steeps comes with an extra dose of precision and strength. When you stomp on the pedals, you get plenty of go thanks to a buttery smooth Shimano XT drivetrain, and when things need reeling in, you can slow it all down with Shimano XT disc brakes. And, with Niner XC wheels rolling effortlessly over rocks and roots—thanks to 29 inches of cyclical awesomeness—your trail rides will feel like you're floating on air.
