Tough, dependable and ready for whatever trail adventure you can think of, the One Forty 700 marries a high-value all-aluminium frame to high-performance equipment that won't let you down. Merida’s radical new trail geometry delivers the sort of climbing ability that would make a mountain goat proud while shaming enduro bikes with descending speed. Wide range, 12-speed Shimano SLX drivetrain and four-piston brakes, high-performance Marzocchi Z1, Air, 150mm fork and Rock Shox Deluxe Select+ plus Merida’s long travel adjustable dropper post deliver unwavering performance. A super-steep 80° seat angle, low front end and bottom bracket allow it to clear the most technical climbs, while longer reach figures across all sizes and a well-balanced 65° head angle mean it’s still more than capable of ripping any descent.
