Expirience with the Merida ONE-FORTY 6000

Ludwig Döhl The model name suggests 140 millimeters of suspension travel at the fork. But this is a deceptive maneuver by the Taiwanese brand Merida. Because the ONE-FORTY 6000 is equipped with lush 150 mm travel at the fork and thus also equipped for excursions into alpine terrain. Especially in extremely steep terrain, this combination makes for smooth handling. The seating position is sporty. Especially for light riders under 70 kilos, the weight of this bike is enormous. With 15,11 kg, the ratio of rider to bike weight could be lighter. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Merida ONE-FORTY 6000 sizing runs big.
