Because I’m such a fanboy, as several of our readers have pointed out, we’ll get an exclusive first look at whatever Niner has up their sleeves for Eurobike this Wednesday. Until then, stare at this and speculate…
Interesting. Welds look too beefy for Stainless or Ti. Must be some sort of scandium/aluminum geared hardtail. The cable routing is interesting, and odd that they chose to focus on that bit for the teaser, they don’t route their cables that way on any of their existing frames. I wonder if its some sort of Niner great divide ultra-endurance rig that has moved the cables on the sides to maximize space for frame bags and bottles.
^ Yup!
Seeing as Niner doesn’t have a Ti bike in their lineup, I am going to assume they aren’t going to start with a Tandem. Could be a CX bike, I think one of their sponsored riders, Slyler, is also on the world CX scene. Although I think the angles (could be the photo) look unusual for a CX bike. CX seems like a natural progressing, but not really a 29er anymore. Soon they will be making road bikes if that’s the case.
