Overview
About this bike
For fast and rowdy rides that keep your tires airborne as much as they're glued to the trail, Niner's got the bike for you. The RIP 9 RDO 3-Star 27.5+ features a 170mm-travel RockShox Lyrik fork paired to a Monarch Plus RC3 Debonair rear shock to complement the supreme-handling 150mm-travel CVA suspension. A sweet Race Face/Shimano XT 1x11 drivetrain has the brawn to keep up with your hard charging antics, and Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes enables confidence on mind-bending descents. Boost hub spacing sets your stance wide for increased stability in the rough stuff, and plays nice with varying wheel sizes so you can swap your stock 27.5 plus set for your favorite 29ers to take advantage of increased rollover capability. And when the trail turns downright demanding, keep your cool knowing the KS Dropzone R seatpost and Race Face cockpit components are there to give you loads of control.
