Overview
About this bike
Niner's M.C.R. 9 is the perfect all-day-epic, XC machine that gives you the comfort of supple Reynolds 853 steel at a weight only slightly higher than most alloy frames. Using custom-drawn tubing with the stability of 29-inch wheels, you get ride quality unsurpassed by ordinary hardtails. S-bend seat and chainstays allow for vertical compliance of the rear wheel and increased tire clearance. Niner's dexterous geometry gives the perfect balance of control and liveliness that you just have to ride to believe. Plus, the components on this bike are all business: WTB wheels, SRAM's X-9 group, Avid's Juicy 7 brakes and Race Face cranks and controls. Oh, and what does M.C.R. mean? Why, Magic Carpet Ride, of course!
