Progressive performance, without the big price. The Big Nine 600 TR uses Merida’s latest LITE aluminium frame to deliver cutting-edge geometry and handling that's also high on comfort and control thanks to a 120 mm SR Suntour fork, clearance for 2.4" tyres and their own dropper post. Whether you want to sprint singletrack or rip around race tracks, it's the perfect place to get started thanks to dependable Shimano 11-speed shifting and confident performance from hydraulic disc brakes.
Mountain biking is one of the most varied cycling disciplines and probably the most demanding when it comes to equipment. While full suspension bikes offer amazing riding characteristics, the classic hardtail remains one of the purest tools for the job. Merida’s 29er wheel equipped Big Nine range offers truly modern geometry with increased standover clearance and handling stability to better deal with the tough race tracks of today, with the downcountry ready TR option your can enjoy a boosted fork travel, aggressive tyres and dropper post. Merida’s hardtails are the backbone of their range and showcase the enormous wealth of experience and knowledge gained in almost half a century of bike production and manufacturing. The Big Nine range symbolizes the symbiosis between modern frame technology, attention to detail and craftsmanship.
