EMD
Don’t let the price tag fool you—the EMD is the least expensive frame in the Niner lineup, but it’s still been created with same level of design and attention to detail as its pricier brothers. This geared aluminium hardtail is fun, fast, and comfortable, even in the most demanding enduro race. Eat My Dust indeed!
Perfect for: those who want to get into 29ers on a budget
- Super-light and race-worthy
- Comfy and compliant
One 9
If you’re a singlespeeder and a weight weenie (no, they’re not mutually exclusive), this is the One for you. Made from Scandium, the One is the lightest production 29er on the market. Super-fast and stiff without being harsh, this frame takes the simplicity of a single speed ride and makes it even better. As Niner say, "no chain chatter, no gears, just pure unadulterated fun."
Perfect for: racers, weight weenies, singlespeed enthusiasts
- Super-light and super-fast
- The most technically advanced tube set on the market
Air 9
Like the sound of the One 9? Well, this is the version with gears! Re-designed from the ground up, this wicked fast Scandium hardtail frame is perfect for racers who don’t want to commit to only one gear ratio. Both the Air and One have a brilliant amount of tyre clearance too, so you can run fatties with confidence. “The Air 9 is the best-handling hardtail 29er we’ve ever ridden!” say Mountain Bike Action. And you will, too.
Perfect for: racers, weight weenies, gear-lovers
- Super-light and super-fast
- Doesn’t sacrifice comfort
Sir 9
The Sir 9 (how hard is it for us not to write Sir Loin-A-Lot there?) is the most versatile Niner frame. This steel hardtail can be run as a single speed or a geared bike; either way, it’s a butter-smooth ride you can customise to your heart’s content. If you’ve not ridden a 29er before, this is the bike that will change your mind! Want someone else’s opinion? Let’s hear it from BikeRadar: “This sweet handling steel hardtail is one of the most convincing and opinion-changing wagon wheel (29er) arguments we’ve ridden.” There you go!
(p.s. Want this frame in a geared-only option? Check out the MCR 9 below...)
Perfect for: those who like to keep their options open
- Steel to give unsurpassed comfort
- Can be run single speed or geared.
MCR 9
If you're looking for a geared steel hardtail, the MCR 9 is just for you. The same custom-butted Reynolds tubing as the Sir 9, it smoothes out the roughest of trails without the weight penalty that other steel frames hit you with. This is the ideal all-day epic XC machine, with the comfort only a steel ride can give. If you know you’ll never want to convert your bike to a single speed, this is the one for you.
Perfect for: dirt connoisseurs
- The perfect go-anywhere bike
- Comfy on long hauls, nimble on the hairpins, and stable at high speeds
Jet 9
Fully revamped, this full-suspension frame is race-ready! The Jet 9 strikes a perfect balance between stability and manouverability, giving you Niner’s trademark precision handling. Stiff and responsive, this is the Niner dualie for you if speed is your main concern. (The frames we've got are white, rather than black, by the way. Proper photo pending!)
Perfect for: racers
- Amazingly smooth
- 3” of travel at a great race weight
RIP 9
The RIP can tackle pretty much anything. It rolls over rocks, glides down the drops, and flies over the trails. With 4.5” of travel and clearance to fit chunky tyres, this all-mountain rig has racked up rave reviews around the world due to its razor-sharp handling, plush suspension, and respectable price point. Want to try one out? Why, we’ve got a demo bike on the floor—just drop us a line to take it for a spin!
Perfect for: all-mountain riders, serious trail riders
- Excellent stability and control in rough terrain
- Turns on a dime
