Niner Bikes has long been a supporter of IMBA. And, every year, they doll up one of their frames and auction it off in limited quantities — all for the sake of blessed singletrack. This year’s auction is unique in that the bike in question is all-new and being released just for the auction block.
So, the auction/product announcement brings us Niner’s answer to the fatbike — the ROS 9 Plus:
