2021 Niner RKT 9 RDO RS 4-Star XT Carbon Mountain Bike in Green

The legendary RKT 9 RDO RS is made to get you there - FAST.

Niner’s first bicycles were designed for the demands of cross-country racing and we’ve applied all our knowledge to this machine. From sprint races to multi-day marathons, this bike is built for all the speed, all the time. When pedaling is your passion, look no further for a platform to support your quest.

Agility and accuracy are paramount when quickness is your priority. So the RKT 9 RDO RS frame geometry offers nimble handling with a 100mm travel suspension fork, a 71-degree head tube angle and short, 439mm chainstays. On the steepest climbs, a 74.5-degree seat tube helps to keep your hips firmly forward over the bottom bracket.

With 90mm of tuned rear suspension travel in the RKT 9 RDO RS, paired with a 100mm travel fork, this bike is meant for pure speed. This short-travel version of our famous RKT platform is perfect for XC racing, quick handling, and efficient pedaling. It’s sensitive to small bumps in the early stroke and resists pedal bobbing. Plus, remote front- and rear-suspension lockouts on the 4- and 5-star builds (remote fork-only lockouts on 3- and 2-star builds) give instant control to the rider when every pedal stroke counts.
