Merida Silex 700 gravel bike review

juil. 2024

This Merida Silex 700 may be lower down the brand's gravel range of bikes but, with a mixture of some major tweaks to the geometry and overall design for 2024, plus a great selection of kit it is an affordable gravel machine which is capable of taking on more technical terrain than most. With some rather classy paint jobs the whole range looks great, too. Five things that weren't cool - until gravel happened Scott Addict Gravel 10 gravel bike review Gravel bike suspension and dropper posts - do you need them?

Points forts
  • Hard to beat in terms of fun

  • Sleek look

  • Enough mounting points for all eventualities

  • Top of the line components

Points faibles

A budget friendly gravel bike that swaps speed and efficiency for comfort and capability

  • Mounts for bags, mudguards and more

  • Full-carbon fork
