    niner one9 sizing

    I need a teeny bit of help. I've ordered a niner one9 but am having doubts about size. The demo that the shop had was a RIP9, in medium, which has the same ett as the one9. It felt fine as far as size, but obviously being a dually is a bit different. Me: 182cm, long in the back, short in the...
