Do you want to ride your bike in light terrain? So does the Racebike of Merida. With 12,98 kg weight for the complete bike, the Merida Hardtail joins the lighter bikes that you can buy for under under 1000 Euro. Most bikes in its class are heavier. The lively character invites you to throw the bike around with ease. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Merida BIG.SEVEN 300 suite the taste of most bikers. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the Merida Hardtail doesn't really suit you.
