The One Twenty is a bike that doesn't need to be shoehorned into a category. Short travel trail, downcountry - call it whatever you want, but this is a fun mountain bike for doing fun mountain bike things. Light enough to climb all day but planted on the descents - and the perfect balance everywhere else. Whether you're into flowing singletrack sessions or big mileage in the mountains, the One Twenty is Merida’s do-it-all Swiss Army Knife of a bike. The high-value, high-quality LITE aluminium frame is paired with Merida’s progressive geometry concept but tweaked it to suit a fun, short-travel machine and, thanks to the Agilometer sizing concept from their award-winning One Sixty and One Forty range, you can pick stable or agile handling independently of bike fit. The hardest part will be getting the smile off your face.

Merida Dual Suspension 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.
