2022 Niner RIP 9 RDO 27.5

2022 Niner RIP 9 RDO 27.5

The ruler of off-road bikes.

The little brother of the RIP 9 RDO 29, this 27.5" tire bike gives you more standover room, less rotating weight, fast handling, and quick draw agility. The flip chip makes this two bikes in one. High mode is perfect for everyday trail riding. Low mode is for party down. It's available in four different build kits and three different sizes.

The frame is made from Niner's "Race Day Optimized" carbon fiber. It's got a beefed-up rear triangle, while the wide, flat surfaces on the top and downtube help absorb all frontal impacts and vibrations. You can crank out the most daring rides day after day, trail after trail.

Also check out our guides to the electric version and 29" version.
