The result of many hours of study and testing, the new AIR 9 RDO is presented as an indisputable improvement on the always praised rigid rally frame. And, to meet the ever-changing demands and riding styles of mountain bikes, the Air 9 has changed its geometry to ensure even greater versatility, durability and performance. As with the RKT 9 RDO, the height of the handlebar has been reduced on the new Air 9 to put the rider in an attack position and ready to load. In addition, it is now compatible with 120mm travel forks, which greatly increases your possibilities when it comes to descending on trails or demanding trails. The chainstays have been shortened by 4mm at the rear, leaving them at 435mm, thus improving acceleration without sacrificing stability. The revision of the geometry and the design has also made it possible to lengthen the distance between the front wheel and the bottom bracket, mount 38-tooth chainrings and maintain the width of the tires. As regards the bottom bracket area, this increases its robustness and now allows mounting them in any size and combination. Finally, it is worth mentioning that in the age where internal cabling and changing transmission options are a reality, the Air 9 has a window under the bottom bracket to facilitate work. By pulling the plate, you get instant access to the cables without removing the connecting rods. Another highlight is the diameter of the seat post, which is now 27.2 mm. to increase comfort.
