Résumé

It offers a good gear range for varied terrain, impressive ride comfort, and is well-specced for the money.

A great bike for fanging about on or off road, with the simplicity and light weight of 1x

Merida Silex 700 review

oct. 2018 · Robin Wilmott

The Silex forges a bold path with its looks and position, but is great value and rides well. Buy if you prioritise a slightly higher position to better enjoy your adventures

Points forts
  • All-Ultegra groupset, Fulcrum wheels, frame quality

Points faibles
  • Higher riding position than usual for its size

Merida Silex 700 review

juin 2018

Sitting in the upper end of the gravel range from Merida, the Silex 700 delivers a no-nonsense package of reliable components, parts and a geometry that brings a stable ride feel. Its geometry vaguely references mountain bikes, which makes for a really excellent ride feel, on road or off, blurring the line between road and mountain in a fast, fun bike.
