For over a decade, the RIP 9 trail bike has ruled Niner’s off-road lineup. This latest evolution of our
flagship 140mm 29er is ready to tame any trail.
On every Niner Bikes full-suspension frame, Enduro Bearings MAX black oxide bearings are inside every
pivot point. Niner is one of the only brands using these high-grade pivot bearings.
We always say, if you really want to understand Niner, you have to go and ride one. Our bikes make riding
on dirt a better experience! We’d love to get your bum on one of our bikes, because we are certain
you’ll have a great time and you won’t want to give it back.
As often as possible, we partner with key dealers in popular locations around the country to offer
semi-permanent fleets of Niner test bikes. Let’s call them “Niners in residence,” or maybe “Niner pop-up
dealer demos.”

"As built, our RLT is the Winston Churchill of gravel rigs; it’s robust, pugnacious and driven by purpose."
"Its outstanding and rare mix of road-bike performance and gravel-bike capabilities should put it at the top on your list."
"Was there anything I didn’t like about it? Giving it back."
"It transfers power well and has the chops to keep up with the pack when the pace picks up, yet it has enough flex to smooth out rough terrain."
