Overview
About this bike
Niner’s RIP 9 Carbon helps you redefine speed. This lightweight trail ripper features Niner's RDO carbon frame for a balanced, predictable, and nimble ride that's as light as it is smooth. All that carbon tubing comes together with Niner's 125mm CVA rear suspension to ensure your pedaling force goes straight to forward momentum, even when the suspension is active. You'll go faster on the climbs, push harder on the twisty stuff, and blast down the bumpy descents with 140mm of bump-swallowing travel up front from the Fox 34 Float CTD fork. Speaking of going fast, the RIP 9 Carbon is outfitted with a Shimano SLX/Deore/XT drivetrain for crisp, clean shifts every time. For even more trail-smoothing zip, it all rolls on Niner's aluminum wheels that make short work of trail chatter. Slow it all with the effortless ease of Shimano's light, reliable Deore disc brakes. Schwalbe tires provide a dirt-chomping bite when you're shredding a tight corner, while a whole host of Niner components round out the stellar build of your speed-redefining RIP 9 Carbon.
