The Jet 9 is our fast, light, race-ready full suspension bike. Designed around the same CVA suspension system found on the R.I.P. 9, the Jet 9 features 80mmmm of plush, fully active travel with nearly a pound lighter frame weight from it's a bigger brother.
Speed was the main concept of the Jet 9, and the geometry is focused on a balance between stability and maneuverability. The 72 degree head tube angle is based on an 80mm travel fork and is designed to give the same precise steering as our hardtail frames. All linkage pivots are outfitted with full complement sealed cartridge bearings for a smooth, friction-free suspension, and a custom valved FOX RP23 shock offers superb bump compliance and damping. As on the R.I.P. 9, the Jet 9 also features a low leverage ration. Keeping pressures down in the air chamber improves tenability and responsiveness in the rear shock while increasing the lifespan of the seals.
80 mm of travel combined with a 29” wheel creates an amazingly smooth ride at an incredibly respectable weight, making the Jet 9 the perfect weapon for everything from your local race scene to the all day epic. If it’s speed your looking for, the Jet 9 will get you from zero to sixty in the skip of a heartbeat.
