Samenvatting

The Merida Silex is a versatile gravel bike praised for its competent off-road performance, comfortable ride, and mtb-like geometry that sets it apart. It offers a good gear range for varied terrain, impressive ride comfort, and is well-specced for the money. However, some models may feel sluggish when sprinting, and the absence of frames for shorter riders and certain component specs have been noted as drawbacks.

Merida Silex 700 review

okt 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

Hoogtepunten
  • All-Ultegra groupset, Fulcrum wheels, frame quality

Dieptepunten
  • Higher riding position than usual for its size

Merida Silex 700 review

jun 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.
