DESCRIPTION
Jam-packed with amazing components, this bike features the high-quality Shimano EP8 drive unit and EP8 630 Wh battery (504 Wh on the XS frame). With 85 Nm of torque, and specifically designed clearance, this bike will help you tackle the toughest of terrains, but thanks to the comfortable geometry of the tough all-aluminium frame, it is also versatile enough to be your own ‘SUV’ of the trails, giving you confidence and fun when riding anything from a fire trail, or entry-level trails, to gnarly Enduro tracks. The 160mm of Marzocchi Z1 air forks will help soak up the bumps and keep your ride smooth while the Merida Expert TR dropper seat post will help you shred those trails, getting the seat out of the road so you can focus on the fun. Shimano SLX Hydraulic, 4-piston disc brakes will give you amazing braking control, even on rough terrain and fast descents, while the 12-speed gearset will help make those climbs that bit easier.
