Experience the thrill of the race with the Ninety-Six RC 10K from Merida. This top-tier XC racer leaves no detail overlooked in its dedication to performance. A lightweight carbon frame comes armed with cutting-edge features to ensure you'll slice through the competition with ease.

Merida's reputation in the field of mountain biking is steeped in decades of achievement, culminating in the design and launch of the original Ninety-Six project. Today, that legacy is encapsulated in the Ninety-Six RC 10K, a modern incarnation equipped for the complex demands of XC, marathon, and stage race courses.

This versatile model boasts enhanced downhill capabilities compared to its predecessors, offering an exciting blend of a lightweight XC race bike's climb and sprint abilities with the reassuring 'trail-ability' of a trail bike. This transformation empowers you to conquer both ups and downs with unwavering confidence and unimpaired speed.

Featuring a slacker head angle, extended reach and a lower bb and stand over height, the bike design ensures stability and spacious maneuverability. A steeper seat angle enables greater application of pressure on the pedals, effectively converting your strength into speed.

Merida's new Ninety-Six boast a more progressive leverage ratio. With a higher initial ratio, the suspension responds to even the slightest impacts, while its progressive nature guarantees superb mid-travel support. The ingenious P-FLEX system eliminates the need for a seat/chainstay pivot, reducing the bike's weight for enhanced speed while also improving stiffness and durability.

Embrace the future of cross country racing with the Merida Ninety-Six RC 10k. It's not just a bike; it's a game-changer.
