Expirience with the Merida Big.Nine TR 8000

Ludwig Döhl As a tours with lots of high meters, the Merida ticks all the boxes. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. The balanced seating position is likely to suite the taste of the majority of bikers. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range tours with lots of high meters, the Merida is one of the best models in the tours with lots of high meters category. We like: 25 years warranty on the frame!
