Overview
About this bike
If your choice cuts include gapping rock gardens, pumping berms, and ripping down technical descents, Niner's got your number. The RIP 9 RDO 2-Star 29er features a 160mm RockShox Yari fork paired to a Fox Float DPX2 Performance EVOL rear shock to compliment Niner's supreme-handling CVA suspension. A SRAM GX Eagle 1x12 drivetrain puts a huge gear range at your fingertips, and SRAM Guide R hydraulic disc brakes make easy work of keeping you in control on mind-bending descents. Boost hub spacing sets your stance wide for increased stability in the rough stuff, and also plays nice with varying wheel sizes so you can take advantage of mid-fat traction with a swap to 27.5+ wheels and tires. And when the trail turns downright demanding, you can keep your cool knowing the KS Lev SI seatpost and Race Face cockpit components are there to give you loads of control.
