Expirience with the Merida Big Trail 300

Ludwig Döhl You wont be able to hide that smile on your face when riding the All Mountain von Merida in alpine terrain. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Merida Big Trail 300, the 64 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. In the saddle of the on demanding single tracks your bum will have a pleasant ride – and your back too. Anyway: In the uphill, the Merida lets the competitors look outdated. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
