The Merida Matt's J24 is a hardtail mountain bike custom designed for the 9-13yr old rider, between 130–150cm in height. With components carefully tailored to their needs the Matts J24 is the gateway for young riders to get out and experience the outdoors. Just like the adult sized Mountain Bikes, Merida manufactured these from the same 6061 Racelite aluminium, they are also painted and lacquered in the same professional way, so the bike still looks great even after a few tough knocks. They even come with a kickstand included to ensure this quality ride won’t be left lying around. Integrated mounts for mudguards and a rear carrier rack are also included for future customization options. The Junior specific saddle, break lever and Shimano twist shift gearing means even though these Bikes look like mini adults Bikes they are custom designed for a youth's geometry and needs.

Kids Bike Sizing Chart


Merida is an international bike brand with its headquarters in Taiwan, the R&D department is based near Stuttgart in Germany. To be based in Germany has historical reasons for MERIDA but the precise location was chosen specifically because the region around Stuttgart is one of the hot spots of the automotive and machine building industry which Germany is famous for and attracts a hugely skilled design and engineer labor force.
The Merida team are more than just highly trained and experienced bicycle creators – they simply love everything ‘bike’. Most of their R&D staff are daily bike commuters while others are serious mountain bikers, who regularly compete in Marathon, Enduro and Downhill competitions, or licensed road racers and even ambitious Ironman triathletes.
