Merida Big Trail 800 first ride - MBR

Sep 2017 · Mountain Bike Rider

The Merida Big Trail stays true to the hardcore hardtail philosophy. Super comfortable riding position – helped by a tiny 35mm stem and 760mm handlebar.

Highs
  • Great build for the price with all luxuries catered for. Short stem and wide handlebar. Rides every bit as good as it looks.

Lows
  • Chain taps on high chainstay, although isn’t noisy. Dropper post needs more drop as only measures 115mm.

Merida Ride 200 review

Jan 2016 · David Rome

Perhaps the most upright road bike going, the Merida Ride 200 is ideally suited to those seeking comfortably relaxed riding position, as opposed to fast bunch-ride speed. Buy if you’re seeking an upright and comfortable starter road bike

Highs
  • Comfortable ride, full carbon fork, premium frame quality

Lows
  • Slow front shifting, brakes, perhaps too upright ride
