Overview
About this bike
Spend your days shreddin' on Niner's RIP 9. Its airformed aluminum frame is light and strong where it counts, and it's 125mm CVA link gives you exceptional pedaling power even when the suspension is active. Stay above the bumpy fray thanks to the RockShox Monarch RT3 shock and the 140mm Fox 34 fork, both of which give you the confidence to charge into every section of trail. It all rolls on big yet nimble Niner AM wheels to keep you moving over rocks, staggered roots, and everything in between. You'll never miss a shift thanks to Shimano's XT/SLX/Deore drivetrain that gives you all the push needed for mach speeds. With all that speed, you'll need something to slow you down, so Shimano's Deore brakes are on the job. Any trail, any time, spend your days shreddin' on the RIP 9.
