Merida Ninety Six RC XT 29er

Merida Ninety Six RC XT 29er MTB:

The life of the privateer cross-country racer is the hardest one on the grid; delivering top-level performance but without top-level resources. That’s where the Merida Ninety Six RC XT 29er mtb comes in with a race-ready package of a lightweight CF4 carbon frame married to components that hit that sweet spot between performance and cost. Shimano’s benchmark 12-speed XT drivetrain needs no introduction, while Fox’ proven 32 SC fork and float shock serve up their 100 mm of travel, lap after lap. Your rivals will get bored of seeing the back of you.

Shimano XT 12-Speed & Fox Suspension—Race-Tested Reliability

The NINETY-SIX is the latest incarnation of our former World Cup proven XC and marathon machine. It inherits the forward-surging race genes of the old NINETY-SIX and combines it with a new readiness and ability to tackle today’s demanding XC and marathon courses. The carbon fibre frame platform and P-FLEX suspension is the perfect basis for a fun-packed, fast and trail loving short travel full suspension machine that helps define what a modern cross-country race bike should be. It’s able to take on the rougher than ever world-class race tracks as well as the trail riders who want hyper-speed climbing with the ability to descend like never before. For those that want a cross-country bike for race duties rather than high-speed trail fun, the RC models deliver a short travel punch with a 100 mm fork in the front, super fast rolling tyres and a lighter front brake.
