£3300.00 – Merida One-Sixty 700 Mountain Bike 2023 – Enduro Full Suspension MTB

Description

The One-Sixty 700 gets all the cutting edge enduro performance of Merida’s radical new design but with a high-value and fully featured all-aluminium frame. That means hard-hitting modern geometry with the new FAST kinematic suspension that delivers a chaos taming ride alongside quality Marzocchi and Fox suspension. Shimano’s proven 12-speed Deore drivetrain means reliable shifts time after time, while four-piston brakes make short work of keeping everything under control.The One-Sixty is a radical, all-new design that pushes Merida’s hard-hitting enduro platform to new heights. Just as well, because once it’s there it’s ready to rip the longest, toughest descents too.Merida’s new suspension system uses a flexstay design with an adjustable rocker, so whether you choose to run it as a full 29er (162mm travel) or mixed 29/27.5” setup (171mm travel), the geometry is preserved. There’s a radically steep 79° seat tube angle for goat-like climbing and slack 64° head angle plus 170mm fork to deal with downhill trail chaos. New sizing allows riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height, while suspension becomes more progressive as you size up, all with long-travel dropper posts. Wire Port cable routing plus reliable threaded bottom bracket round out the package, while carbon frame models offer on-board tool storage and FidLock magnetic bottle cages.
