The 2015 Niner RLT 9 Steel 2-Star 105 is the epitome of "Steel is Real". Don't change what's not broken.
The RLT 9 comes equipped with mounting areas for racks and panniers. What does this mean? It means that when the road ends, your adventure doesn't have to. Everyday you'll notice less and less riders passing you. The simple reason, they've gotten a taste for something more... With disc brakes, and 700x35 cross-like tires, the RLT 9 allows you to venture off the beaten trail.
Constructed steel frames, welded by the best builders and outfitted with Shimano 105, means that you're getting a dependable bike that will be with you along the way. To absorb some of that off-road vibration, Niner has used carbon forks to dampen the impact.
The Niner RLT 9 is priced at an entry level, allowing even the most modest riders to add this bike to their collection.
