On the race course or on the trail, the RKT 9 RDO is ready to launch. The RKT 9 was designed to be more versatile with a stout 120mm suspension fork and slightly slacker geometry than the RKT 9 RDO RS (Race Spec). Hammer the race course or hit the trails with a pedal friendly bike that’s not afraid to get rowdy going down. With 90mm of efficient CVA rear suspension, you’ll be quickest to the top of the climbs, yet pay no penalty going down. You could say it’s a party up front and business out back.
Niner’s Constantly Varying Arc (CVA), suspension design is a short dual-link, four-bar system unique to Niner. It’s built to be supple yet stable, controlling unwanted suspension movement with calibrated anti-squat, yet remaining active while climbing and descending. Courtesy of careful leverage ratio tuning, it’s sensitive to small bumps in the early stroke yet supportive in the mid-stroke, which gives riders a platform for powering up climbs.
