Expirience with the Merida NINETY-SIX 6000

Ludwig Döhl The NINETY-SIX 6000 is the Taiwanese answer to the current down-county trend. With 120 mm at the front of the fork, the otherwise thoroughly sporty chassis wants to make it possible to take a trip on light trails. Merida is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. The strongest case for this bike is however: The coherent geometry and grippy tires ensure full send mode on the trail. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
