Expirience with the Merida BIG.NINE 60

Ludwig Döhl When using it as on long tours, the BIG.NINE 60 really shows its full potential. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Merida BIG.NINE 60 is a very balanced customer. On long tours, the comfortable seating position ensures a relaxed back. On the downhill, however, the BIG.NINE 60 is left in the dust by its competitors. With the shifting components, Merida fulfills not only the current standard, but even puts the icing on the cake with its extremely high-quality components. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Merida is behind its products. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Racebike von Merida sizing runs small.
