Merida’s Matts J range is designed for the heroes of tomorrow, which is why they put all the know-how gained from years of making adult bikes into lightweight, high-quality machines for kids to enjoy. High-quality components chosen specifically for the needs of children are married to Merida’s aluminium frames that are created with the same painstaking attention to detail and quality of finish as the rest of their bikes. That’s the only way to guarantee that young riders get the same enjoyment of cycling, safe in the knowledge that their bike will never let them down.
The Matt’s J24 Plus is a fat-tyred monster truck that offers the control and grip of chunky 24" oversize tyres, paired to a rigid fork that keeps excess weight to the absolute minimum, making pedalling easier and more efficient. Add in Merida’s kids specific finishing kit, powerful hydraulic disc brakes and a smooth Shimano drivetrain and you’ve got an awful lot of fun without the extra weight. With integrated mounting points for accessories like mudguards and a rear carrier rack, the Matt’s J24 Plus can seamlessly swap between trips to school and trail. Suits heights from approx. 129-137 cm.
