  1. The 96 is not wot you have in mind.Its ot a BIG HIT bike. its not even a 1ft hit bike its firstly a race bike with the rear suspension just taking the edge of things giving effectively about 50mm of travel if you are lucky.the frame runs 1:1 rear actuation if you looking for comfort or getting big hits get the Merida 120 or 140 Looks like you bought the wrong bike
  2. that thing cant hard lock...throw it ina bin
  3. for something world famous for cracking..you'll be lucky if you get 3k for it
  4. Hello Hi. Saw lots of bikes with continental race at the rear and mountain king in the font please help me understand why..
  5. Easiest way is to sell it and get an Anthem
  6. its going to do its first 3 day next week i hope im happy with it
  7. Take up the crash position, cause it always falls on top of you..
  8. I have never had a burp or any other problems. Oi Admin Dude i have an urge to comment here..... im just asking cause im told ones not allowed to type wots on ones mind. So please advise a a suitable advisable answer. But wot i do know is that Gripe Water is usually very good for burps
  9. 35psi for me is not 35psi for you.
  10. on your race wheels they are ok. ita a lot of money if bought here. about 6k. and at that price CKings makes them look like an inferior product.. Both just a huge wast of money. Honestly.
  11. hey Coenie. Shimano is so 1970's May the force be with you
  12. fit some bra straps to it....hey-presto problem solved
  13. the rise is not that important cause you can get the same rise using a spacer and a flat bar. what will change is going from a 66cm riser bar to a 58cm flat bar. the flat bar will quicken your steering, sometimes make the bike a bit twitchy. the wider bar is a bit forgiving.. change it and try it..
  14. Why do you create problems for yourself. i feel sorry for you on a race like 2Hell and back. What you see the pro's ride is very specific to a race. some races they use 2x10 others, the standard setup.
  15. Neither hey Wax build up, clogs up the chain inside. causing the chain not to work in the way that it should. There is a reason why lubes like Rock n Roll and Purple extreme were developed..
  16. from exp with different bikes and different agents.. Merida is still TOPS. And thats the reason many including myself own one..

    Did you guys watch the TDF live? did you notive the amount of water they drink? did you notice the even bigger amount of Coke they drink Even seen taking RedBull. Please dont fall into the marketing and sales Hype i raced for many years....its how you fuel before, not during, and what you do after thats important. But if you feel that new drink "GiJoe" is good, then each time you use it, remind yourself that its working because you paid alot of money for it.
