If you're on the market for a cyclocross frame that's out of the ordinary, but doesn't sacrifice an ounce of technical supremacy just to stand out, meet the carbon fiber Niner BSB 9 RDO frameset.
The BSB initialism speaks directly to the frame's intended audience: Blood, Sweat, and Beers — a practical mantra of 'crossers around the world. That non-too-serious moniker doesn't translate to a less-than-serious design and engineering process, though. Niner spent many hours doing computer analysis, lab testing, and beating the crud out of its prototypes until it arrived at this disc-brake-only product, complete with aggressive geometry (steep head tube and seat tube angles, short seatstays, and high bottom brackets to avoid pedal impacts) and a thru-axle-equipped fork modeled after its award-winning rigid carbon mountain forks.
For the BSB's main frame, however, engineers even further refined their Carbon Compaction System molding process — employed on all of their RDO frames — to extract the absolute most strength from every carbon fiber while eliminating those that weren't contributing to the frame's sharp handling or lateral stiffness. The process uses rigid internal molds for a more consistent and compact internal tube layering than the usual bladder molds, not only saving weight and boosting strength but ensuring that the interior of the frame is as beautifully seamless as the outside. The generously sized down tube, head tube design, and chainstay and seatstay shaping were all influenced by Niner's supreme mountain hardtail, the Air 9 RDO, to bestow the BSB not only with race-worthy stiffness but also a relatively smooth ride.
