Overview

About this bike

Did someone say fast? You wouldn't know; you're going way too fast to hear them aboard your Niner RIP 9 RDO. 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 that ensures your pedaling force goes straight to forward momentum, even when the rear end 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 from the RockShox Pike RCT3 fork. Speaking of going fast, the RIP 9 RDO is outfitted with a legendary Shimano XTR drivetrain for crisp, clean shifts every time. For even more trail-smoothing zip, it all rolls on Niner's AM carbon wheels that make short work of trail chatter. Slow it all with the effortless ease of Shimano's light, reliable XTR brakes. Schwalbe tires provide a dirt-chomping bite when you're shredding a tight corner, while a whole host of Niner carbon components round out the stellar build of your quiver-replacing RIP 9 RDO.
