Merida One-Twenty 600 review

May 2019

If you’ve got £2,000 to spend on a new bike and want a good all-round trail bike, you could do a lot worse than consider Merida’s One-Twenty 600. The 120mm travel 29er is a well-specced option with good geometry and suspension that combines to provide very good trail manners whether grinding up or slashing down. Best mountain bikes for under £3,000 - capable trail bikes that won't break the bank Is it worth converting your mountain bike to tubeless?

Review: 2019 Merida One-Twenty 8000

Feb 2019 · David Arthur

The One-Twenty is a short travel ripper that's surprisingly capable on the descents.

Highs
  • Fun and fast on the all-day rides and XC blasts

  • Impressively capable in the rough and technical stuff

  • Tough and burly equipment extends its range beyond traditional cross-country riding

Lows
  • Reach could be a touch longer

  • Travel will hold you back before geo and equipment does

  • The paint job and decals - sorry Merida, I’m not a fan

Jun 2015 · David Rome

It’s an affordable trail bike with a quality frame. Despite an imperfect suspension package, it’s still a hoot to ride if you're on a budget
