| Features | DESIGN The swooping curves and strong lines of this frame began with testing data based on our own and competitor’s products, helping us to determine baseline tube shapes and thicknesses for best performance. Applied to a set of design parameters, this data also drove our targets for strength, stiffness and damping characteristics. The result - an aesthetically striking form whose curves are functionally derived. This updated version adds custom carbon upper rockers with a forged alloy lower linkage combined with 142x12mm spacing. Jet 9 RDO riders will experience one of the most efficient power transfers in full suspension mountain bikes, period. CVA SUSPENSION The Jet 9 RDO features Niner’s patented CVA suspension (U.S. Patent No. 7,934,739) and delivers 100mm of fully active travel with superb compliance and damping via a Custom valved Fox Float CTD Factory shock with Trail Adjust and Kashima Coat. For those seeking the advantages of 29” wheels combined with pedaling efficiency across all possible chainring combinations, CVA results in a faster and smoother ride. PERFORMANCE GEOMETRY The Jet 9 RDO is a carbon speedster above all. Precise handling is the primary goal of the Jet 9 design and the geometry strikes a balance between stability and maneuverability. The Jet 9 RDO works well with 100 to 120mm forks, allowing riders to further fine tune the ride. Riders who choose a 100mm fork will discover handling traits inspired by our hard tail racing frames. Fitting a 120mm fork will result in a trail machine that delivers the smooth steering characteristics you expect from a Niner. |
