2022 Niner MCR 9 RDO Inventory

It makes dirt riding an even better experience.

The MCR 9 RDO is the first full-suspension drop-bar bike on the market. It's the "Magic Carpet Ride" for gravel riders! It gives you a huge amount of comfort, so you can ride in places you never thought possible on a gravel bike. Full suspension means less chatter, no numb hands, and more energy at the end of each adventure.

This Niner is configured as a short-travel system. The heart of it all is the CVA suspension. It's tuned especially for absorbing the constant bumps and jolts of rocky, rutted dirt roads. It's fairly linear suspension with less end-stroke progression. The rear shock is also lockable for maximum performance on smooth roads when you don't need the suspension.

Since the MCR 9 RDO is designed for adventure it also comes with a huge array of integrated frame mount so you can pack all the gear you need, whether you're out on a 100-miler or biking from Alaska to Mexico. It's easy to equip with the racks, fenders, backs, and bottles that you want for your perfect setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

2022 Niner MCR 9 RDO

  • How do I know what size Niner MCR 9 RDO to get?

    For riders from 5'5" to 5'9", the size small (53cm) frame is recommended. For riders from 5'8" to 6'0", the 56cm frame should be a good fit. Riders from 5'11" to 6'3" should find the 59cm frame to be a good fit. If you're in between sizes, we recommend demoing the bike at a bike shop. Unfortunately, this bike isn't a good fit for most riders below 5'5".

  • What's RDO carbon fiber?

    RDO stands for "Race Day Optimized." RDO is Niner's meticulous approach to utilizing carbon material in their products. Niner maximizes the benefits of carbon fiber by designing products that fully exploit its characteristics. This involves careful computer modeling to establish stiffness and strength parameters, creating frame shapes that disperse energy efficiently, and employing a carbon construction process that ensures tight compaction and precision in wall thickness. The result is enhanced ride quality, durability, and weight reduction, backed by Niner's rigorous testing and 5-year warranty.

  • What's the warranty on this bike?

    Niner bikes purchased after Sept 1, 2019 include a limited lifetime frame warranty for the original owner. Niner branded components purchased after January 1, 2017 are also covered by a 5-year limited warranty. You must register your product with Niner to be eligible for warranty coverage.
