Niner launch new JET 9 and RIP 9 bikes

Recommended Posts

That vertical shock position is a clear DW-Link rip-off that you find on Giant bikes. Worst-link suspension designs are superior, so it's an odd choice by Niner.

 

I would've bought one, but since you can't fit two bottles inside the front triangle, I'll look elsewhere.

jees it must be hard being the local buyer for this. R46k is not small change, but there's clearly not a shortage of okes who see value here. but it's a fickle crowd.

 

how many do you order?

do you read comments here to gauge (i hope not)!

Not sure I'll like the new JET RDO - slacker with more travel...

 

I'll love my JET cos it's nippy/point&shoot! Awesome XCO/Marathon bike.

 

Maybe the shorter stays will keep it nimble but a 67.5 head is slaaaaaaack.

 

Either way - I don't have enough kidneys to buy this bike. I wonder how much blood and semen requires donating for one of these....
 

~R70k for an SLX bike is a little steep!

What on earth are they gonna call the 27,5?

 

Niner-1,5 ??

Instead of the 27 plus... will probably be the 29 minus  :whistling:
