Well, that&#8217;s where the awesomeness of Niner customer service comes into play.<\/p>\n<p>Among other options (you can read them @ the link above), they&#8217;re offering an Air9 frame for $300. Not as a total replacement- you actually purchase an Air9 frame at that huge of a discount then get a new, re-designed Jet9 frame when they&#8217;re ready to go next year. So, I&#8217;m expanding my MTB stable to include a hardtail.<\/p>\n<p>My plan is to put all of my parts on the Air frame when it arrives and start slowly aquring parts for a 2nd build while I wait for the new Jet to arrive. My goal is to make my next build a little lighter. I&#8217;ll probably go for a 2&#215;9 crank, some lighter wheels, carbon bars&#8230; you get the picture&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So, thanks again to Niner bikes for taking care of their customers. I think that this type of customer service is becoming more &amp; more rare, but you guys are doing a stand-up thing with your recall offers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sad\/happy news from the dirty side of my riding life&#8230; Jens Voigt, my trusty Jet9 rig, bears one of the serial number badges that&#8217;s covered under the recent safety recall issued by the guys at Niner.
