Riassunto
The Merida Ninety-Six is a cross-country bike praised for its lightweight frame, well-sorted suspension with excellent traction and sensitivity, and modern geometry that enhances handling and versatility. It offers impressive value with high-level components, though some reviews note issues with the TwistLoc lockout and inconsistent brakes. The bike excels in technical terrain and racing scenarios, balancing efficiency and comfort effectively.
Lightweight and stiff frame
Well-sorted suspension with good traction and sensitivity
Modern geometry for improved handling
High value with quality components
Dual bottle cage capability
Issues with TwistLoc lockout
Inconsistent or squealing brakes
Geometry may feel outdated in some aspects
Cockpit can be too low and narrow
Suspension lacks sensitivity in certain builds
The benefits of traction and fatigue reduction are very clear too, combined with the low weight, to make epic marathons or flat out technical circuit speed a lot easier.
Merida has refocused their short travel full-suspension bike for more fun, all-day versatility, and speed when the trails get rough.
It’s lighter, snappier and more agile than your typical trail bike, with excellent pop that’ll have you skipping and jumping your way down far more technical trails than a 100mm travel bike should really be on.
The suspension and geometry have both feet firmly planted in XC racing.
No doubt this bike feels cohesive; it's a proper case of the whole being as good or better than the sum of the parts.

The down-country Merida Ninety-Six RC8000 delivers do-it-all, full-suspension competence with high-level spec and performance at a reasonable price. Merida Ninety-Six RC 9000 review All-new XC tyres and shoes from Specialized Santa Cruz's XC machine gets revamped for 2021 'Down-country' is the recently adopted term for an XC full-suspension bike that's been tweaked to offer more poise and ability when the terrain gets technical and gravity kicks in. In real terms, this means a slacker geometry, longer suspension travel and bigger profile tyres over its RC9000 brother.

Standing out like a sore blue thumb, the new Merida Ninety-Six 8000 is a 100mm travel XC bike that's pumped up with a bigger fork, aggressive rubber and more powerful braking. What effect does that have on the trail? And what kind of rider is it best suited to? Read on for our Merida Ninety-Six review.
Supple, active and progressive suspension performance
Low weight and sprightly handling gives it a load of spunk
Massive confidence for a 100mm travel XC bike
The SID Ultimate fork is brilliant
Aggressive, idiot-proof rubber
Dual bottle capability
Wider bars please
TwistLoc remote struggles to stay in place
Front hub would benefit from Torque Caps
Headset cable routing adds servicing complexity
