Iwan Kemp Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 The Jet 9 Carbon is Niner's cross-country offering featuring 100mm of rear wheel travel. Although it boasts the same front triangle as its R.D.O (Race Day Optimized) bigger brother, the "Carbon" version as tested has an alloy rear triangle to keep costs in check.Click here to view the article

Hilton. Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 No mention of price as tested, or overall build weight? I do love that hot tamale colour, and I gotta admit the curvaceous looks are growing on me. Niner SA 1

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I've seen this thing in the flesh, and the colour is, well, LOUD! Looks damn good though. Niner SA 1
Eldron Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I luuuuurv my JET RDO. It is a slightly older model but still rocket fast :-) See what I did there? At the risk of sounding like a Ninerphile (I readily confess that I am) - it is the fastest duallie I've ridden. Mine is 11.6kg with Reba fork, 2x10 XTR, Citec Ascender S wheels and a fairly ordinary PRO Koryak finishing kit (all alu), Maxxis Ardent Race/Ikon combo. Niner SA 1
