I have the same bike. The TwistLoc hasn't been a problem at all. I actually love it. It has never closed without me touching the button. And it does come with a Kashima dropper post. Good video👍

That really interesting to hear. I'm really interested in buying one of these bikes, but very worried about having the problem with the TwistLoc because I saw another video review where they also had the same problem. Guess I better talk to the bike shop service centre about it before I buy, see if they can fix it if the problem arises.

@@scottw4538 My friend bought the XT version of the ninety six. He had the problem with the TwistLoc. It seems that the problem is on the rockshox side of things. Changing the TwistLoc for a new one can resolve the issue. But I assure you when the TwistLoc works the bike is from another planet.

I have a Merida, and love it. I’d love one of their higher spec weapons.
