Overview
About this bike
When you need a bike that matches your trail-shredding ambitions, cozy up to Niner's RIP 9. Its airformed aluminum frame is light and strong where it counts, and its 125mm CVA rear suspension takes full advantage of 29er geometry to give 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 Revelation RCT3 fork, both of which give you the confidence to roll smoothly over chatter and send that three-footer you've been eyeing. You'll never miss a shift thanks to Shimano's legendary XT drivetrain and with all that speed, you'll need something to slow you down, so Shimano's XT brakes are on the job. And it all rolls on big, yet nimble Stan's ZTR Flow EX wheels to keep you moving over ugly rocks, staggered roots, and everything in between. Any way you choose to rally, Niner's RIP 9 meets your ambitions.
