Great review of our NINETY-SIX RC 9000 now on Offroad.cc

After publishing their first ride review earlier this year, Offroad.cc tester and long-distance enthusiast Matt Page has used the last few months to spend even more time on our new NINETY-SIX RC 9000 and has put up his full review on the site. 

Matt points out the updated and well thought through frame design and suspension configuration, the smooth, reliable and powerful Shimano XTR drivetrain and brake performance, the overall weight and the butter smooth and well-controlled rear shock and fork from Fox. 

HIS FINAL VERDICT:
'Ultimately the Merida Ninety-Six RC 9000 delivers a rapid ride both uphill and downhill. If blasting around at 190bpm is your thing, this bike is for you.'
OVERALL: 4 out of 5 stars
QUALITY: 4 out of 5 stars
PERFORMANCE: 4.5 out of 5 stars
