Expirience with the Merida ONE-SIXTY 500

Merida ONE-SIXTY 500 Review For 2023 Merida has completely revised its enduro. The independent rear end concept with closed frame triangle and the impressive design show: The Taiwanese take the gravity segment more seriously than ever. The flat 64 degree head tube angle of the Merida ONE-SIXTY 500 gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. Well trained athletes are likely to really enjoy the sporty seating position. A shout out to Merida – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Merida ONE-SIXTY 500 for on very demanding single trails a benchmark in the price range under 3000 Euro. With 25 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
