About the Niner RLT 9 RDO Apex XPLR Gravel Bike, 59cm

The RLT 9 RDO is Niner's carbon gravel frame, here built with SRAM's Apex XPLR 12-speed group and a rigid carbon fork. The frame is the draw: 26 threaded mounts, rack and fender eyelets, internal cable routing, and clearance for either 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires. It suits riders who want one light carbon bike for fast gravel, commuting and light touring. Against alloy gravel bikes it is lighter and more versatile in mounting, but it is a rigid, race-leaning frame rather than a cushioned bikepacking rig. Owners rate it highly, with most giving it full marks.

Internal cable routing and thru-axles front and rear
Cons
  • Rigid fork and frame transmit trail chatter
  • 1x 40T chainring limits top speed on pavement
  • Mechanical Apex brakes, not hydraulic
  • Apex XPLR is SRAM's entry gravel group, not its lightest
  • 59cm is a large frame, so fit is limited to taller riders

What reviewers say

  • 4 / 591 ratings

Owners rate the RLT 9 RDO highly, with the large majority giving it five stars and very few rating it three or below. They like the carbon frame, the mounting options and the wide-tire clearance. Complaints are minor and mostly about the rigid ride and the Apex build.

What people mention
  • FramePraisedOwners call the RDO carbon frame light and comfortable for long gravel days.
  • MountsPraisedRiders value the many threaded mounts and rack and fender eyelets for commuting and touring.
  • Tire clearancePraisedThe ability to run 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires is a common point of praise.
  • Ride comfortMixedSome find the rigid fork and frame harsh on chunky gravel, while others call it fine for the category.
  • BrakesCriticisedA few riders say the mechanical Apex disc brakes need a firm pull and lack the feel of hydraulic brakes.
  • GearingMixedThe 1x 40T setup with an 11-44T cassette climbs well but spins out on fast pavement.

Questions and answers

Is the RLT 9 RDO a race bike or a bikepacking bike?
It leans toward fast gravel and all-road riding. The carbon frame is light, but the many mounts and rack eyelets let you load it for commuting or light touring.
What is the difference between the RDO and the alloy RLT 9?
The RDO is the carbon frame, lighter and with more shaping than the alloy RLT 9. The alloy version is heavier and less expensive but shares the gravel geometry and mounting approach.
Can I fit wider tires?
Yes. The frame and fork take 700 x 50c or 650b x 2.0" tires, and the stock wheels and Schwalbe G-One R tires are tubeless-ready.
What gearing does the Apex XPLR build have?
It runs a 40T chainring with an 11-44T 12-speed cassette. That gives a wide range for climbing, but the top end is limited on fast road descents.
Does it come with racks or fenders?
No. The frame has the mounts and eyelets for racks and fenders, but those parts are not included.
Who is the 59cm size for?
It is a large frame aimed at taller riders. Check Niner's geometry chart against your reach and standover before choosing it.
