There’s a new bike in town and it’s built to last, not let you down. When you’re spinning up steep climbs, bombing down the backcountry and grinding out the final miles as the sun sinks into the horizon, you need a bike you can trust. A comfortable, capable, hand-built bike made from proven, air-hardened, heat-treated steel. That’s right, steel. Because Steel Is Real and it’s fully optimized in the SIR 9.

The classic steel frame construction gives you the comfortable, durable, capable, "ride hard, put away wet" mentality that you have always wanted in a frame. No fewer than 18 threaded mounting bosses for racks, fenders, frame bags, bottles, and even a top-tube bento box. "Trail country" geometry delivers optimum performance on long pedaling rides, stiff climbs, extended descents, and spicy technical sections. With clearance for up to 29 x 2.4' tires or 27.5 x 3.0, you can go farther and stay out longer.

Build it your way with the SIR 9 frame-only option. Run it geared. Run it singlespeed. Nearly any drivetrain you can imagine is within reach, and Boost hub spacing gives you freedom for all the wheel and tire options you could want. This steel frame is ready for adventure. 

Features:  

  • Reynolds 853 steel frame construction because "steel is real"
  • No fewer than 18 mounting bosses for bags, racks, bottles, and more
  • Biocentric 30 bb gives you the freedom to run whatever drivetrain you desire
  • Trail ready geometry provides a longer top tube and slacker head tube for more stability at speed
  • Integrated dropper post routing for a clean setup
  • Tire clearance for up to 29 x 2.4" or 27.5+ tires

Niner 2021 SIR 9 Hardtail Mountain Bike Frame (Cement/Black/Copper) (XL)
While I have not built the bike yet, the Niner Bikes 2021 SIR hardtail mountain bike frame, in size XL, is beautiful. It seems to be well-constructed of Reynolds 853 steel. The paint job is gorgeous and shows great attention to detail.

Also, Performance Bicycle packed the bike frame well and shipped it quickly. I am very happy with the service.
