[Closed] Niner EMD

Yep and I love it.
I have used mine all year for various races and general trail rides and so far it has not missed a beat. Its quick steering even with a 100mm Reba on the front and I dont think I would want it any quicker so I would avoid a shorter fork.
The main thing that I like though is that its stiff in the power department but offers more than enough comfort even for longer rides.
The general frame finish is very good but my only complaint would be that the paint chips far to easy. But you do get a touch-up included so its not all bad.
Mine weighs about 23lb with XTR, Reba, Stans etc.

HA is too steep for gnarly terrain

head angle is fine for everything, except perhaps the above. even then you might find it o.k. for gnarly terrain.

Thanks guys, don't ofter ride gnarly terrain, don't mind quick steering as used to race BMX, more interested in comfort and retaining momentum.

cheers

i have a sir9 and air9, can't comment on the emd. the steel sir9 is noticably more comfortable (flexy) than the scandium/alu air9.
