OS X El Capitan - Can't install bundler using gem

I just installed El Capitan and had to install rails. I am trying to install bundler but am getting the following error. I found this answer on stackexchange but seems like i would be messing with a security issue https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/204312/cant-install-bundler-using-gem

sudo gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc
Password:
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EPERM)
    Operation not permitted - /usr/bin/bundle

update:

$ rvm gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc
Please note that `rvm gem ...` was removed, try `gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc` or `rvm all do gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc` instead. ( see: 'rvm usage' )

From https://github.com/bundler/bundler/issues/4065

You'll need to either change your GEM_HOME or do 

sudo gem install bundler -n /usr/local/bin

because of El Cap's introduction of SIP (System Integrity Protection).

You are probably running into El Capitan's new feature System Integrity Protection.

However, you don't really want to install your gems and stuff for development in your system ruby. I did that for many years, but really, save yourself the headaches and use RVM or rbenv.

OS X 10.11 has a so-called "rootless" feature, which forbidden users to modify /usr directory. The only exception is /usr/local. So sudo is useless here. I suggest using rbenv to install a new ruby installation somewhere else.
