Introducing the Niner RIP 9 RDO!

2 years in development, Niner's highly anticipated and requested carbon trail bike finally makes an appearance. The RIP 9 RDO incorporates global rider feedback as well as Niner's rigorous carbon design, engineering and testing standards. Our alloy RIP 9 has over 30 glowing media reviews for ride quality and handling - the RIP 9 RDO takes these characteristics and ups the ante with carbon frame, linkages, ISCG compatibility and additional travel.

What is the best tire for your ride?

Trying to decide on new tires for your mtb?

the narrow tire (1.8 – 2.1) would offer:
- lowest rolling resistance (good)
- easier acceleration and pedaling because of low spinning mass and small tread contact
- less floatation over rough and sandy terrain

the medium width tire (around 2.2 – 2.5) would offer:
- increased grip
- increased rolling resistance- average acceleration and pedaling because of increased spinning mass and increased tread contact

the wider tire (2.5 or wider) would offer:
- highest grip levels for their intended use
- highest rolling resistance, poor acceleration and high pedaling resistance for flat or uphill terrain because of high spinning mass and large tread contact area
- better downhill momentum because high tire mass works with gravity to create a flywheel effect

Not sure which one is best for you?  Stop in and ask the experts:  Dano, Donnie and TJ!
