Built around our new Four-bar linkage frame with up-to-date geometry and proprietary X6 aluminum tubing, the new Shift R9 is the ultimate ride-anywhere-ride-anything Enduro model. With a steeper seat tube angle for more efficient pedaling plus a slacker head tube angle and longer reach for an improved attack position, the Shift R9 will satisfy a wide range of riders. With 160mm of rear travel and 170mm of front suspension provided by Rockshox, the Shift R9, with its new Shimano XT and SLX 12-speed components, allows for a smooth ride up or down the hills, under the clock or not, with a wide-range gear ratio and precise, crisp shifting.
