NINER RLT 9 RDO 2-STAR BIKE 2018FOR THE ROAD LESS TRAVELEDGravel riding has become incredibly popular in recent years. A gravel bike allows you to ride on the road and keep riding when the pavement ends and the dirt begins. For those who prefer the road less traveled, there is the Niner RLT 9 RDO. The RLT 9 RDO is the multi-tool of the bike world. You're able to ride dirt trails, gravel trails, or asphalt. It features a carbon fiber frame that is lightweight and incredibly durable, a PF30 bottom bracket shell, front and rear fender mounts, and a rear rack mount so you can carry extra gear for longer rides. The RLT 9 RDO uses thru-axles on the front and rear so you'll have stiff and predictable steering and handling on and off-road. It also has two water bottle mounts on the inside of the frame triangle of every frame size, even the smaller frames.The RLT 9 RDO 2-Star Bike comes with Shimano Tiagra components for the brakes and drivetrain. It features Shimano Tiagra front and rear 2x10 shifters with Tiagra front and rear derailleurs. This is paired with a Shimano HG500 11-34 tooth cassette and a Tiagra RS400 crankset with 50/34 tooth gearing. This provides enough gearing for just about all terrains. When you're coming down the hills, the Tiagra hydraulic disc brakes will provide the stopping power for confident descending. It also features Niner CX alloy wheels and Schwalbe G-One Performance tires. If you're looking for a gravel bike to take you places you've never been, this will be your go-to bike for every ride.FeaturesShimano Tiagra drivetrain provides 2x10 gearingShimano Tiagra hydraulic disc brakes provide confident stopping powerRDO carbon frame is both lightweight and durableFront and rear rack mounts so you can take extra gear along for the rideTire clearance for 700x40c or 650x40cSPECIFICATIONSFrameRDO Carbon FiberForkRDO Carbon Fork with rack mountsHeadsetNiner integrated IS42/28.6, IS52/40ShiftersShimano Tiagra 2x10Front DerailleurShimano Tiagra 4700Rear DerailleurShimano Tiagra 4700 10-speedCranksetShimano Tiagra RS400 50x34 toothCrank Arm Lengths-Bottom BracketShimanoPedals-ChainShimano HG54 10-speedCassetteShimano HG500 11-34TBrakesShimano Tiagra RS405 HydraulicWheelsetNiner CX Alloy, 15x100mm, 12x142mmTiresSchwalbe G-One Performance, 700x38cHandlebarEaston EA50 AXHandlebar Widths-StemNiner Alloy StemStem Lengths-Bar TapeNiner Bar TapeSeatpostNiner Alloy, 400mmSeatclamp31.8SaddleNiner Custom with Chromoly railsIntended UseGravel, RoadWeight-Note: Components are subject to change without notice.GEOMETRY (mm / inch)Size47cm50cm53cm56cm59cm62cmA: Seat Tube Length430 16.9460 18.1490 19.3520 20.5550 21.7580 22.8B: Effective Top Tube510 20.1525 20.7545 21.5565 22.2585 23.0605 23.8C: Stack535 21.1556 21.9577 22.7592 23.3613 24.1634 25.0D: Reach362 14.3366 14.4374 14.7384 15.1398 15.7405 15.9E: BB Height------F: BB Drop75 3.075 3.075 3.0702.8702.8702.8G: Head Tube Length105 4.1125 4.9145 5.7165 6.5185 7.3205 8.1H: Head Tube Angle70.0deg70.5deg71.0deg71.5deg72.0deg72.5degI: Seat Tube Angle74.5deg74.0deg73.5deg73.0deg73.0deg72.5degJ: Standover Height693 27.3731 28.8754 29.7780 30.7804 31.7827 32.6K: Chainstay Length430 16.9430 16.9430 16.9430 16.9430 16.9430 16.9L: Wheelbase1000 39.41007 39.61017 40.01030 40.61045 41.11054 41.5Suggested Rider Height150-160cm 4'11"-5'3"157-168cm 5'2"-5'6"165-175cm 5'5"-5'9"173-183cm 5'8"-6'0"180-191cm 5'11"-6'3"188-198cm 6'2"-6'6" | Niner RLT 9 RDO 2-Star Bike 2018 Cement, 50
