Niner Jet 9 RDO - $4,790
Mid-travel trail bikes are all the rage now; bikes that are both quick and fun. The new Jet 9 RDO definitely fits the mould. It features a lightweight full-carbon frame with dialled trail geometry; 434mm chainstays, a 67.5 degree head angle and 120mm of efficient CVA suspension. In addition to taking 29-inch wheels, the new Jet 9 RDO can also accept 27.5 plus tyres up to 3.0 inches wide — it’s the most versatile Niner ever!

*Note: Due to potential supply issues for the Australian market, the Niner may not be available in the full size range when this prize is drawn. If this occurs, a Devinci Django Carbon 29 will serve as substitute for the Niner frame - details here

The Jet Nine RDO will be kitted out with the fine gear that you see below and supplied ready to ride.
