You can stay out longer, ride further, and summit sooner.

The RIP e9 is the electric version of the well known RIP 9. If you're looking for a trail bike with a bit of electric assist so you can stay out riding even longer, the RIP e9 might be just what you're looking for. It's available in one build kit and three different sizes, all equipped with a top-end SRAM SX Eagle drivetrain and a Bosch Performance Line CX motor.

The frame is made of hard-wearing hand-welded 6061 aluminum, a familiar material from many Niner bikes.

The RIP e9 is powered by a Bosch Performance Line CX motor, one of the most respected names in the e-bike industry. This motor offers up to 85Nm of torque which is plenty for climbing up steep trails. Niner says the CX Gen 4 has a torque sensor that's 20x faster than the nearest competitor. That means the assistance works right when you want it, and only when you want it. The battery uses Niner's down tube design, where it's situated on the bottom of the down tube to keep a low center of gravity.
