Merida NINETY-SIX 9000 29"/52cm/12speed/Bronze-black/2024/A62411A01252

Description

Merida Ninety-Six 9000 in Silk Bronze/Metal Black with an XL frame feels from the very first ride like a mountain bike engineered to deliver high-level performance, confidence and composure across varied trail conditions. The riding position strikes a balanced, athletic stance - not overly upright but engaged enough to support efficient power transfer and acute terrain awareness. This thoughtful balance helps maintain a natural posture that’s comfortable on long XC rides, training loops and varied terrain where both climbing efficiency and descending confidence are essential.

Once underway, the full suspension system shows a refined responsiveness that manages trail irregularities with poise. The combination of a well-tuned rear shock and a capable fork absorbs small bumps and trail chatter while maintaining traction and responsiveness. This allows you to stay connected to the surface and preserve momentum over roots, rocks and loose ground. On steeper climbs, the bike remains steady and direct, helping you put power into the pedals without unwanted bob. When the trail turns downward, the stable geometry and composed suspension balance help you hold your line and tackle technical features with confidence and control.

The 29-inch wheels further enhance the bike’s ability to roll over obstacles and maintain speed across mixed surfaces. These larger wheels provide a smooth, efficient feel that helps reduce fatigue on longer rides and maintain momentum through varied conditions. Paired with a responsive frame design, the Ninety-Six 9000 feels agile enough to respond quickly to rider input while providing the stability needed for confident handling at speed or on more technical terrain. This combination makes the bike versatile and capable, equally at home on competitive XC laps as on exploratory trail rides.

In everyday use, the Merida Ninety-Six 9000 proves to be a dependable choice for riders who prioritise a steady, engaging and performance-oriented ride experience. It supports skill progression and confidence across a range of trail challenges without unnecessary complexity. Whether you’re heading out for a focused training session, exploring new paths or embarking on a longer adventure, this mountain bike delivers a composed and rewarding ride that feels capable, controlled and enjoyable - ride after ride, no matter the terrain.
