The larger wheels goal is simple: make the best frames and all we do, and it gives us unprecedented re-invigorated our affection for mountain parts we can and then back them up with focus on the subject; no kids’ bikes, no road biking. It was never about being different, or unmatched customer service. It seems bikes, nothing to dilute our purpose. The Big traveling the road less traveled. We started simple, really, but it’s so much more than Revolution is our endeavor to make the best Niner because we believe that 29” wheels simple.

Visit a Niner dealer and take a ride. 2009 - THE YEAR OF NINER - WHO ARE WE? REAL RIDERS OWN NINER Niner didn’t spring forth from a spreadsheet or corporate boardroom – it was born on REAL SUPPORT FROM NINER the trail. Niner is the brainchild of Chris REAL RIDERS RIDE NINERS Sugai and Steve Domahidy, two long-time Being a part of the Niner community Cobwebs belong in neglected corners, not riding buddies whose obsession with bikes doesn’t start at the cash register and on bicycles.

Niner was founded on the trail, and some of our best ideas come together on long rides. 2009 - THE YEAR OF NINER - WHO ARE WE? HERE’S A SECRET: WORKING AT NINER IS THE ULTIMAte bike geek’s dream. NOT ONLY DO WE GET TO PLAY WITH THE LATEST AND GREATEST TOYS, BUT OFTEN WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK HAND IN HAND WITH SOME OF THE BICYCLE COMPONENT COMPANIES WE ADMIRE MOST. THE RESULTS OF THESE COLLABORATIONS ARE GROUND-BREAKING NEW PRODUCTS FOR THE BIG REVOLUTION. THESE NEW PRODUCTS HELP ALL 29ER RIDERS, NOT JUST NINER OWNERS, AND WE WOULDN’t haVE IT ANY OTHER WAy – if you’re ridiNg a 29” wheeled bike, you’re experieNCING THE VERY JOY THAT FOUNDED THIS COMPANY. THE BIG REVOLUTION IS AN INDUSTRY-WIDE EVENT AND WE ARE PROUD TO BE A PART OF IT. 2009 - THE YEAR OF NINER - EXPANDING THE BIG REVOLUTION AND THE SCIENCE OF HAULING ASS WHEEL SIZE >> Sometimes the reasons are too esoteric to put into words. Sometimes riding is believing. No matter what we say to you here, we challenge you to go test ride a Niner at your local Niner dealer and see for yourself. Talk to a Niner owner and we guarantee that the owner’s response will be more information than you asked for. Life changing? Maybe. We’ve heard it before. >> The basic concept of the larger diameter is simple: it will keep your wheels on top of oncoming obstacles. Rather than riding IN the terrain, you’ll be riding ABOVE it, gaining more control and stability on even the roughest trails. Think of the difference between a skateboard wheel and monster truck tire. The skateboard wheel can come to a grinding halt on a pebble while the monster truck wheel can crush granny’s Oldsmobile. Yes, this example is a little extreme, but you get the idea. >> The larger wheel offers increased centrifugal force, which in turn improves the bike’s stability. The extra three inches also increases the amount of tire contacting the ground at any one moment, meaning enhanced tire bite. Dump a Niner into a corner at full speeds and you’ll find that the unparalleled grip and stability will hold to lean angles you never thought possible. >> Niner didn’t just stuff larger wheels on to an existing chassis. It required a lot of work and testing to dial in the geometry to feel right in all situations. Our design parameters from the beginning were to design a bike that didn’t require a learning curve. Since all we do is 29ers, we had to get it right. Expectations were understandably high. The result: Niner’s dedication to The Big Revolution has been critically acclaimed by some of the top bicycling magazines in the world. Function first, but form closely follows. Attention We pride ourselves on not only using some of the best Our steel headbadge provides essential reinforcement to detail gets us fired up and everything we do is materials made for bicycles, but working closely with of the critical headtube area. Nah, it just looks way designed by Niner for Niner. We don’t believe in off- their engineers to provide tubing designed to meet cooler than a sticker. the-shelf solutions our specific needs. We believe Easton and Reynolds are cool partners to have. 2009 - THE YEAR OF NINER - BIG WHEELS AND THE NINER PHILOSOPHY W.F.O. 9 >> Wide Full Open Wide, Full Open. That’s what the name means. Let ‘er go, full throttle, don’t slow down for anything, that’s what the name implies. With 5.5” of plush CVA™ suspension technology underfoot, there’s nothing stopping those 29” wheels except the human instinct to live another day. >> The W.F.O. 9 went through exhaustive testing and refining, including a first for a 29er frame: a tapered headtube for increased front end stiffness and strength. We thought about all of the ways people might take advantage of having 5.5” of travel coupled with a 29” wheel, and we designed the W.F.O. 9 to handle them all. A custom S-bend hydroformed downtube allows the use of both coil and piggyback shocks, offset bottom linkage makes room for an ISCG mount, making this frame the first 29er to be compatible with the all new SRAM Hammerschmidt system and other chain guide systems and an optional 150mm rear spacing increases rear wheel strength and stiffness. Best of all, build it how you want. Order the W.F.O. 9 with 135 or 150 rear spacing and then choose from our shock options or order without a shock. >> Whatever your needs, from aggressive all mountain to big hit, the W.F.O.

  • 2011 Catalog
    2011 BIKE STUFF Surly Trailers There are quite a few options these days for trailers that carry kids or dogs, luggage, groceries, and other relatively small loads. Trailers are nice because they can be detached when not in use, but most trailers can’t haul much weight and the ones that do suffer some design drawbacks such as incompatibility with many kinds of bikes. Conversely, there are quite a few cargo bikes that can haul bigger loads, but cargo bikes meant for a lot of weight can be difficult to load, are sometimes difficult to ride (sometimes due to the bike’s design, and sometimes due to the sheer weight of the bike itself), and require a lot of space to store. We felt we could help bridge the gap, so we designed two trailers meant to haul a lot, to be easy to use, and which would work with a bike you have already. We make two bed lengths so you can find one that suits your needs. The beds and hitch are constructed mainly of TIG-welded 4130 CroMoly steel. CroMoly steel is tough and durable and well-suited to this task. We used 304 stainless steel hardware where appropriate to ensure corrosion resistance and a long life. The beds have threaded eyelets for bolting down decking, corner posts, or creating other custom accessories using readily-accessible materials from your local hardware store, lumberyard or home improvement store. The wheels are 16", keeping cargo low to the ground. 16" wheels are also stronger than larger diameter wheels favored by many trailers.

Being absorbed in the bike industry, it’s easy to lose perspective, so I often ask myself this question. For me cycling is about escape and being free, it’s about moving through the landscape under my own steam, while being exposed to the elements and being able to take in the world that’s going on around me. Riding is my thinking time, away from work, away from the day to day stresses, just me and the bike, pedalling and flowing, beautifully simple and honest. In a fast changing world where we are bombarded by the latest gadgets, distracted by poisonous marketing, or absorbed into the ether of social media, the simple process of riding a bike gives me something that I can understand, something beautifully utilitarian that somehow gives me a feeling of peace and a feeling of being truly alive.
