Performance and value, it’s what every enduro rider wants and what this bike delivers, joining an all-aluminium frame with radical enduro geometry to a high-performance kit and Merida’s premium finishing features to deliver a stunning ride. The One Sixty 700 gets all the cutting edge enduro performance of Merida’s radical new design but with a high-value and fully featured all-aluminium frame. That means hard-hitting modern geometry with Merida’s new FAST kinematic suspension that delivers a chaos taming ride alongside quality a Marzocchi Z1, Air, 170mm travel fork and Fox Float X performance platform shock. Shimano’s proven 12-speed Deore drivetrain means reliable shifts time after time, while four-piston Shimano SLX hydraulic brakes make short work of keeping everything under control. Rounding off the build is a modern wheel setup, with sizes XS/S/M rolling on a mullet setup with a 29er up the front and 27.5” at the rear for the best of both worlds. Sizes L & XL roll on full 2
