    Summary

    Expirience with the Merida BIG.NINE 20

    Merida BIG.NINE 20 Review The 100 mm trail on the fork qualify the Merida Racebike for in light terrain use. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Merida, at 14,48 kg. Thus, the Racebike of Merida is one of the lighter Racebike that you get for 679 Euro . The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. Looking at only the shifting system of the rest of the bikes you have to say that other manufacturers in the price range under 800 Eurouse higher quality components. Finally, the Merida Racebike still has one point to prove: compared to the competitors in the same price segment, the Merida has significantly stronger brakes. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Merida puts a lot of trust in its products. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Merida Hardtail sizing runs small.
