Road bikes are only great for the pavement, but if you want to go beyond that, you'll want a gravel bike. Gravel bikes bridge the gap so you can ride on pavement and continue going when the dirt begins. The Niner RLT 9 RDO 4-Star 2x Bike is designed for adventure and versatility. It has an RDO carbon frame and an RDO carbon fork. The frame is compatible with both 700 x 50c tires and 650b x 2.0" tires. The frame also features integrated frame mounts, internal cable routing, and rack and fender mounts so you can easily transform this bike into a daily commuter or touring bike.
The 4-Star 2x version of the Niner RLT RDO comes with a Shimano GRX800 2x11-speed drivetrain. The gearing is perfect for all-day adventures, hill-climbing, and accelerating downhill. Shimano GRX800 hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power so you can descend with confidence and control. DT Swiss G 1800 Spline 25 wheels are paired with Schwalbe G-One Allround EVO Super Terrain tires that can be set up tubeless for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats. With the Niner RDO Carbon seatpost, you'll have a smoother ride over rough pavement and dirt.
