The 2022 Niner RLT 9 RDO 5-Star is a lightweight, high-performance carbon-frame gravel bike built for adventure. The frame is made from lightweight RDO carbon fiber, which keeps things stiff where it needs to be while damping vibrations and chatter. Cables run inside the frame, staying clean and protected, so shifting stays sharp, no matter the conditions.

Speaking of shifting, this bike uses a mix of Shimano's GRX800 and Ultegra parts. That means precise, reliable gear changes, whether you're grinding up steep climbs or stretching out on flats. The gear range gives you plenty of options, so you don't have to compromise on your route or pace.

The carbon fork matches the frame's balance of stiffness and comfort. It's responsive and helps maintain control by soaking up vibrations from rough sections so your ride feels steady and predictable.

Wheels are an important part of what makes this bike ready for adventure. The Zip 303 S Tubeless wheels weigh less and improve aerodynamics without sacrificing strength. Going tubeless lets you run lower tire pressure for better grip and a smoother ride. Those wheels spin on DBCL hubs, designed for efficient power transfer, so your effort goes straight into forward motion.

You'll find Shimano GRX800 hydraulic disc brakes here, trusted for consistent stopping power and great control. Whether descending fast or navigating tight corners, these brakes help you manage speed with confidence.

The tires are Schwalbe G-One All-around Addix 700x40, front and back. They shine in versatility—rolling fast on pavement but gripping well on loose or rocky surfaces. If your ride involves varying terrain, these tires keep things balanced so you don't have to slow down or worry about traction.

Finishing things off is Niner's own custom saddle, outfitted with CRN-TI rails. It strikes a solid mix of comfort and durability, designed to keep you settled on long rides without adding unnecessary weight.
