Overview
About this bike
The word sleek gets thrown around a lot, but Niner's Air 9 RDO takes it to heart with its purpose-driven curves that own the label completely. Beyond the pretty looks, the Air 9 RDO features an impressive carbon layup that shaves grams while giving you the whippy feel you want in tight singletrack and the stiffness you need on climbs. A tapered headtube with just the right amount of slack translates into precision steering through the technical stuff so you get to the finish line faster. It's mated to a RockShox SID XX fork that gives you 100mm of lightweight, trail-taming travel, so you get fast and stay there on the race course. Speaking of going fast, you get the right gear at the right time with a smooth-shifting Shimano XT drivetrain that keeps American Classic Race wheels rolling over rocks and roots with 29-inch ease. Top this smooth rig off with a host of Niner carbon and aluminum components and the result is a fast, fun, and ferocious race course competitor.
