> NINER NEWS: ONE 9 RDO ON THE WAY!
|
Winter is a great time for singlespeeds - dirt and grime can't affect your shifting if you don't have gears, right? This timing is perfect for the delivery of our newest one-gear masterpiece, the new ONE 9 RDO.
Introduced at Eurobike 2013, the ONE 9 RDO is the best ONE yet. Based on the shaping of the AIR 9 RDO with new features such as 142x12 dropouts, Biocentric II bottom bracket and the ability to run it as a singlespeed or with an XX1 style drivetrain, the first batch of frames isn't going to last. They begin shipping directly to international dealers at the end of the month and to US dealers around the second week of December. For complete specs see our site, to reserve yours see your dealer.
