Built for progression, built tough. The One Sixty FR 400 builds on the proven performance of Merida’s aluminium enduro frame and cranks the volume up. Thanks to a DVO Jade X D3 coil sprung back end plus longer travel SR Suntour Durolux 38 180mm fork, mixed wheel size handling, this is a ride that's ready to get rad. Merida prioritized suspension performance and durability then kitted the ride out with a reliable but economical Shimano CUES 10 speed drivetrain and Tektro 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes to create a bike that's ideal for rippers on a budget that go hard every time they hit the bike park.
The One Sixty FR builds on the solid platform of Merida’s award-winning ONE-SIXTY, but cranks the volume up. It's built tough so that you can hit the bike park all day long, or just rip the toughest tracks and trails time after time, safe in the knowledge that the bike won't let you down. To boost the capability, they've added in longer travel forks pushing out 180 mm travel paired with coil shocks delivering 171 mm of rear wheel travel, mounted on their tough aluminium chassis. Running a mixed 29" front and 27.5" rear wheel size for maximum manoeuvrability, whether you're ripping turns or sending it hard. However, you can switch to a full 29er setup without impacting the geometry, thanks to Merida’s flip-chip system. AGILOMETER sizing allows riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height. At the same time, the suspension becomes more progressive as you size up, and all bikes are fitted with long-travel dropper posts.
