By using wheelsize specific frames for the size S and M bikes, Merida gives riders the option of 27.5in or 29in wheels on the two smallest sizes.

Highs
  • Solid and fast

Lows
  • Needs a dropper post and better tyres

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

Merida ONE-TWENTY 7.800 Review

Sep 2017 · Trev Worsey

The MERIDA ONE-TWENTY 7.800 was the shortest travel bike in this group test, could it hold up with its longer legged competitors?

Merida One-Twenty 7.800

Aug 2017

The Merida One-Twenty 7.800 with its 120mm of travel sits nestled between the brand’s XC orientated full suss, the Ninety-Six and the slacker One-Forty trail bike. With the model line up of the One-Twenty split between 27.5” and 29er wheels and some disparity between the geometry and suspension capabilities, the bike is battling with a severe personality complex – efficient XC operator or trail slaying agent?

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
