Bikes Merida Ninety Six RC 5000 Cross Country Race Bike Anthracite (2021)

Merida’s Ninety Six RC 5000 caters to the Cross Country Racer and the Trail Rider looking for an advantage. The CF4 III Carbon frame with nano matric carbon, increases impact resistance by up to 40% and offers an even sleeker design. P-Flex technology allows the frame to flex near the seat and chainstay, making a pivot point obsolete, saving weight and adding stiffness. Updated internal cable routing with a wire port headset cap, cleans up the cockpit area. The geometry has been updated with modern preferences in mind, with a slacker head angle, steeper seat angle, a longer wheelbase and reach. Non-slip tightening tech allows selected bolts to be tightened via a TORX 30 key from just one side. The Rock Shox Reba RL 100mm fork and Rock SIDLuxe Select+ shock offer remote lockout. Shimano Deore M6100 1×12 drivetrain, Shimano SLX Hydraulic Disc Brakes, Maxxis Rekon Race 29×2.35 tyres and an internally routed dropper post ensure the Ninety Six RC 5000 is race ready straight out of the box.
