Niner R.I.P. 9 RDO - Reviewed
It's a good bike by the looks of it. But when are people gonna start calling companies out on all using the same linkage design?
Put as many curves in the linkages as you like, but giant, niner, turner (DW licensed), pivot (DW licensed) and nasty catalogue frames are all the same layout. Then just spec your longish reach, short headtube and low bb height and run obligatory short stays and a slack head angle- you got a snappy trail bike.
It would be good to see something different being added to the recipe.
Good to see niner are doing it right with large/stiff linkage bearings though- are you listening Santa Cruz?!
Another note; What did you measure 35 feet with? Fisherman's ruler?

$1700 GBPI'm selling the downhill bike because I can't get to the races due to work commitments. The bike is in perfect working condition, and has been serviced regulary since new.

Mar 12, 2012Specialized Camber Pro - Large. Upgraded and new compone
$1400 GBPI'm selling my camber pro and replacing it for something with a bit more travel to race the mega. I reckon the camber is the perfect uk trail bike, corners really well- feels good in the air and on the rough sections it feels surprisingly smooth for a 120mm bike!
The spec includes a lot of new parts, and anything used has been serviced. so the bike runs perfectly.
Frame- Specialized Camber Pro- Red, size large. Toptube and seat/chainstays have a few scuffs and downtube has a few chips.(pictured).
Fork- Fox f120 rl- Unridden since going back to mojo for new csu and service. A few tiny scratches on the lowers.
Bars- New specialized riser bar- 720mm wide.
Stem- New specialized 75mm long
Seatpost- New specialized command post- blacklite 125mm.
Saddle- New specialized henge 143mm
Shifters- New Sram x7 10 speed
Brakes- Avid elixir R SL's
Front mech- New Sram x7
Chainset- Carbon Sram x9 cranks- with new 2x10 chainrings
Chain- New connex 10sp
Cassette- New Sram 1030
Rear Mech- New sram x9.
Wheels- Latest shimano xt- Small dent in rear rim. Still seals tubeless fine- hubs have been stripped and regreased- feel perfect. These wheels are a favourite of mine- light, makes seating tubeless easy and they're very stiff and strong!
Tyres- Maxxis lust Crossmarks- 2.25 front. 2.1 rear.
The bike has all the toys to make it a great trail bike and after spending time on it getting it ready to sell I'm gutted to see it go- it feels like new!
Based in Guildford- would prefer collection/ meet - don't really want to risk damage by a courier.
Price- £1400 ono
