About the Niner RLT 9 RDO Apex XPLR Gravel Bike

The RLT 9 RDO is Niner's carbon gravel race frame, built here with SRAM's Apex XPLR 12-speed group and a rigid carbon fork. The frame is the draw: internal cable routing, thru-axles, rack and fender mounts, and clearance for either 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires make it a race bike that doubles as a commuter or light tourer. Apex XPLR gives a wide 1x range with a 40T chainring and 11-44T cassette, so steep loose climbs are covered, though the jumps between gears are bigger than a 2x setup. It suits riders who want one fast carbon bike for gravel, mixed-surface commuting and bikepacking rather than a dedicated racer or a steel tourer.

Hydraulic Apex disc brakes with 160mm rotors
Cons
  • 1x drivetrain has larger gear steps than 2x
  • Apex is SRAM's entry-level hydraulic group, not a racer's spec
  • Rigid fork and race geometry are harsh on rough washboard
  • Stock alloy seatpost and stem are basic for a carbon frame

What reviewers say

  • 4.4 / 516 ratings

Owners rate the RLT 9 RDO highly, with most giving it full marks. They single out the frame's ride quality, the mount options and the tire clearance. The common gripes are the 1x gearing gaps and the parts spec being modest for a carbon frame.

What people mention
  • Frame ridePraisedOwners describe the RDO carbon frame as light and compliant while staying stiff when pedaling hard.
  • MountsPraisedRiders value the 26 threaded mounts and rack and fender eyelets for commuting and bikepacking.
  • Tire clearancePraisedReviewers like being able to run either 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires on the same frame.
  • GearingCriticisedThe 1x Apex XPLR setup leaves big jumps between gears, which some riders find awkward on rolling terrain.
  • Component specMixedReviewers note the Apex group and alloy cockpit are basic for a frame at this level, though they work reliably.
  • Ride comfortMixedThe rigid fork and race-oriented geometry feel firm on washboard and chunky gravel.

Questions and answers

Is the RLT 9 RDO a race bike or an all-rounder?
It is a carbon gravel race frame with mounts for racks, fenders and bags, so it races well but also works as a commuter or light tourer. The geometry is quicker than a dedicated bikepacking bike.
What is the gear range of the Apex XPLR build?
It runs a 40T chainring with an 11-44T 12-speed cassette. That gives a low enough climbing gear for steep gravel but larger steps between gears than a 2x drivetrain.
What tire sizes fit the frame?
Niner lists clearance for 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires. The stock Schwalbe G-One R tires are tubeless-ready.
Can I mount racks and fenders?
Yes. The frame and fork have rack and fender mounts, along with 26 threaded mounts in total for bottles and bags.
How does it compare with the aluminum RLT 9?
The RDO is the carbon version, lighter and with a carbon fork, while the aluminum RLT 9 is heavier and less expensive. Both share the gravel-versus-all-road versatility and mount options.
What brakes come on it?
SRAM Apex hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm Centerline rotors front and rear. Owners report reliable, consistent stopping power.
