Which should I Buy? Scott Spark 40 or Merida 96 fullsus

[Desi]

If the two bikes have comparable specs, I'd go Scott for sure.

Iron who is the agent, I really like the Durin SL's desing, but have been put off getting one as there is no back-up here

 

 

Was told his name is Korrie , not sure the companies name but will Pm you his number . he is curently overseas apparantly with Magura on training and will be back in a week or so. got this info from the old Magura agents.

The Merida is a 100mm travel XC race bike.

The Scott is a 120mm travel trail/XC bike that can be raced.

 

Tread magazine did a test on them a while ago.

 

What sort of riding do you do?

If possible, test ride them and see how the geometry suits you.

[Chris Willemse]

What size Merida 96 are you looking at?

[THIES]

JUST TO MAKE IT MORE INTERESTING WHY DONT YOU TRY THE GIANT ANTHEM X IT IS A GREAT BIKE NEVER LET ME DOWN .

[Omlette]

Go with SCOTT!!!

[mark ellis]

I had a Merida Ninty Six 3000

 

I must have had a dud Magura Fork, worst fork I have ever had.

 

Appart from that bike was great, at the time I could not find anything as well spec'd in the same price range.

Merida; but to just add onto this, I don't have any facts or tests to back up my choice for this. I have a Merida and I think it rocks. I am sure the 96 will as well.

 

The Scott has some good equipment on.

 

Are you referring to the 96 3000-D?

[wynandvdmerwe]

Get the Merida, I have 2! my wife rides the 2010 and myself the 2009 96 3000d.

 

Great bikes! White bike is just hard work to keep clean

[Skott5]

I'm going to put my hand up for Scott...

Dude, this question is going to leave you more confused than a blind lesbian in a fish market.
