The Merida Ninety-Six 9.6 is a Dual Suspension Mountain Bike with 29" wheels. Designed for cross country racing, the Ninety-Six platform boasts a lightweight, stiff frame creating quick acceleration.
FEATURES
- PROLITE 66 TRIPLE BUTTED ALUMINUM: Made with extremely lightweight and durable aluminium allowing for additional stiffness-to-weight ratio.
- TFS FORMING SYSTEM: Merida have utilised Racelite 6061 (TFS), improving both the functionality and appearance of the frame. Ideal for entry level.
- X-TAPER HEADTUBE: With an externally shaped headtube with a bigger diameter at the bottom and a weight saving diameter at the top. This contributes to the stiffness of the bike and adds to steering precision even on difficult trails.
- SMOOTH WELDING: Added aesthetical appeal without compromising on stability.
- INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING: Cables are housed internally to minimise clutter and aid in additional protection.
