Niner Air 9 Carbon…

Just had an email through from Niner re. the upcoming Air 9 carbon… hubba hubba… the detailing on this thing is superb, love the integrated cabling and carbon curves 🙂

USD$1899, I bet that doesn't translate to £1170 or anywhere near when we get a UK price… what's the bet it'll be £1899? 🙁

Who's it made by?

soooooo nice! would be almost a shame to use it! almost tempting to give up gears and suspension!

you can have gears and suspension if you like (well, front anyway) 🙂

I want a Niner.

The back end is so light it levitates off the ground FFS!

Front suss would spoil it though really, wouldn't it!

Im pretty sure it will be the £1800+ you think, but if its $1899 after taxes and shipping it will be more like £1500 to get it shipped to the UK anyway…..

gotta luv that rear disc mount !!!

i like that…..bit flimsy for me i reckon tho… 😉

Plastic tat.

Shape doesn't differ to much from current chameleon. nice bikes shame they only do 29ers.

Who's it made by?

JCB by the looks of it.

Looks heavy 😀

Looks ace. Been missing my Niner EMD on commutes this winter – would have been fab….*sobs*

I think I've just done a little sexwee 😳

I'm in love but I think it needs some gears…

whimper…

Dammit – now I need to change my trousers

I was looking at this the other day. That frame and fork combo is beautiful … especially in dead simple SS guise. I wonder what price they could be imported for?

It's the first 29er that actually makes me want to own one despite not yet having found one I actually enjoy riding.

Now the black and white one has spoilt it for me coz it looks like a Trek 🙁

although it could just be the angle its taken from and i wouldn't say no to owning one 😉

I love it. Don't seem to be doing frames in all the same colours as the fork. At the moment anyway. Certainly needs to be the rigid fork and does look so ace in SS guise. So a rigid SS carbon air and an off the shelf Fisher Superfly please. The Superfly looks almost as good IMHO. But only almost.

Wibble.

The Superfly looks almost as good IMHO. But only almost.

Nah, i do like the superfly, but this thing Looks far better, a lot more than almost……. 🙂

one of each please – the new superfly is gopping the first years were the bomb though!

is that a semi aero straight blade fork ? wont that be harsh as **** compared to a tubular ?
