The Merida Ninety-Six is a versatile enduro bike that combines a light and stiff frame with well-sorted suspension, making it efficient on climbs and capable on descents. Its retro XC character is balanced by modern suspension kinematics, offering good depth of control and acceleration. However, some reviews note steep and twitchy steering, and a cluttered handlebar region due to lockout and shifter levers.
