Merida One Sixty 500

MBUK and Bike Radar Enduro Bike Of The Year!!!

The all-new One-Sixty 500 gets a radical new geometry and suspension design in a tough all-aluminium frame package, paired to components that deliver rock-solid performance and ironclad value.

A RockShox Yari fork and Deluxe shock can take the rough with the rougher, while the four-piston Shimano brakes and wide-range drivetrain are tough and consistent. The One-Sixty is a radical, all-new design that pushes Merida's hard-hitting enduro platform to new heights. Just as well, because once it’s there it’s ready to rip the longest, toughest descents too.

Merida's new suspension system uses a flexstay design with an adjustable rocker, so whether you choose to run it as a full 29er (162mm travel) or mixed 29/27.5” setup (171mm travel), the geometry is preserved. There’s a radically steep 79° seat tube angle for goat-like climbing and slack 64° head angle plus 170mm fork to deal with downhill trail chaos. New sizing allows riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height, while suspension becomes more progressive as you size up, all with long-travel dropper posts. Wire Port cable routing plus reliable threaded bottom bracket round out the package, while carbon frame models offer on-board tool storage and FidLock magnetic bottle cages.

Highlights:

  • Full aluminium frame with FAST kinematic suspension and radical new enduro geometry
  • Mixed or full 29er wheel set up with Agilometer sizing
  • RockShox Yari and Deluxe suspension, proven Shimano 11-speed drivetrain
  • Maxxis Double Down front and rear tyres
  • 200mm dropper post on XL/L/M, 150mm on S, 125mm on XS
  • Powerful 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes
