Experience the adrenaline rush with the Merida Ninety-Six 6000, a modern cross-country mountain bike designed to tackle demanding routes. This bike is steeped in history and success, originally spearheaded by pro racer Ralph Naef, and carrying its legacy forward with a renewed edge.

The Ninety-Six 6000 lets you enjoy the best of both worlds. It optimises the lightweight speediness of a cross-country race bike, and the trail preparedness of a trail bike, seamlessly blending them into a Down-country bike of high performance. Whether you're hitting steep inclinations or rugged downhill trails, the Ninety-Six 6000 offers you unmatched control and swift agility.

The 120mm RockShox SID fork feature combines with the Shimano Deore/SLX 1 x 12 drivetrain and Shimano SLX hydraulic disc brakes to provide smooth, effective control. This bike bears the analogy of being cross-country oriented yet with a solid grasp to conquer uneven terrains.

Cognizant of the evolving demands of mountain biking, the Merida Ninety-Six 6000 is revolutionized to maintain superiority in steep downhill courses. It incorporates a slacker head angle, a longer reach, and a lower bb and stand over height, all working together to enhance stability and grant you more room to manoeuvre. The steeper seat angle enables you to exert greater pressure on the pedals, thereby optimising power transfer.

Adding to its downhill prowess, our innovatively high-ratio Leverage system is sensitive to the smallest of impacts and balanced with a good mid-travel support. The novel P-FLEX system eliminates the requirement of a seat/chainstay pivot point, as a result of which, the bike is not only lighter, but also showcases improved stiffness. The flexibility is aptly maintained using carbon properties and a leaf-spring-like frame design, neither compromising on durability.

With the Merida Ninety-Six 6000, be prepared to mount any challenge thrown your way and enjoy an immersive trail domination experience.
