The Ergon design team has analyzed the requirements of E-Mountain bikers in detail. Longer periods of sitting, steeper uphills and greater levels of impact characterise the E-MTB experience. After intense development, the optimal saddle shape was found. The rear ramp better supports the rider in steep uphill riding situations when seated. The V-shape offers freedom of movement across the wide flanks up to the padded nose – important for particularly steep climbs.Supporting Ramp: Strongly raised ramping for maximum support from behind – helps stabilizing your position on the bike and saves energy when riding uphill.Soft Comfort Padding: Maximum comfort when seated due to thicker padding – even on long rides.Pronounced Relief Channel/Cut-Out: The Relief channel helps to avoid numbness and provides increased protection for soft-tissue areas. Specially adapted for men and women.Pressure Relief Inlays: More comfort thanks to the OrthoCell®-Inlays in the seating area, which helps distribute pressure better.Wide Front: In particularly steep trail sections, the position often is shifted towards the front. That’s why the E-Mountain’s saddle nose is deliberately designed wide and comfortable.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: CroMo,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with OrthoCell Inlays,Weight: 300g (S/M), 315g (M/L),.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
Longer periods of sitting, steeper uphill’s and greater levels of impact characterise the E-MTB experience. After intense development, the optimal saddle shape was found. Thanks to the 3D ?exibility of the Saddle every complex movement of the hip will be supported by the Ergonomic Core. Damping and Comfort will be improved for both men’s and ladies’.Key Features: Shell: Nylon Composite, Rails: CroMo , Cover: Microfibre, Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam.

Our heartland has always been bombproof aluminium hardtails. Our entry level 29er is no exception, it uses a sophisticated TFS frame with the latest technology, full internal cable routing, tapered headtube and inboard disc brake mounts. There's no point making a bombproof frame and then hanging poor components on it. Despite the entry price point we load the Big Nine 15D with as much Shimano componentry as we can due to its reliability.
Merida's heartland has always been bombproof aluminium hardtails. Half a century of frame building experience counts for a lot.All Big Nine and Big Seven models use a sophisticated TFS frame featuring the latest technology: full internal cable routing for a clean, neat set up, tapered headtube offering the potential for future upgrades inboard disc brake mounts protect the brake and maximise stopping powerAs much Shimano componentry as possible has been added to complement the modern frame and enhance reliability.There are a wide range of sizes; Big Nine for taller riders and Big Seven for shorter riders with a healthy overlap between the two. For riders in the middle, riding style can be taken into account. If you are looking for speed and efficiency choose a Big Nine, if you are looking for agility chose a Big Seven.
Carbon eEnduro bike with Shimano's new more powerful EP8 motor and larger 630w battery. Marzocchi Z1 fork and Fox shock, Shimano XT 1 x 12 transmission and Shimano SLX brakes.After 3 years of fantastic reviews, awards and accolades we distilled the essence of the ‘old’ eOne-Sixty to create an innovative new version. All the riding characteristics of the original were transferred to a carbon frame with easy access internal battery that can be charged on or off the bike.The new eOne Sixty is perfect for e-enduro riding with its perfectly tuned MTB geometry and ""mullet"" wheel standard it feels incredibly planted when descending the most demanding of trails.Our design ethos perfectly mirrors Shimano, creating eBike products that mirror normal riding.The brand new Shimano EP8 motor delivers more power, 85NM but in a very smooth and natural manner. To keep you riding longer we use the new Shimano 630w battery.The eOne-Sixty 8000 comes with Marzocchi Z1 fork and Fox shock, Shimano XT 1 x 12 transmission and Shimano SLX brakes.
The Merida Big Trail has been a hit with the mountain bike press and trail riders alike. Bikeboard.cc confirmed that we 'nailed it', while MBR, IMB and many more confirmed that the Big Trail is firmly at the top of the trail hardtail game. Conversations between UK bike shops and Merida's German R & D team resulted in the development of a fun-packed and hugely capable bike. Trail bike geometry combined with a long travel 140 mm fork and grippy 2.4" wide 29er trail tyres make this the perfect companion for exciting trail sessions and demanding all-day rides over rough terrain. It's perfectly suited to UK riding. The modern trail bike geometry has a slack enduro inspired 65.5° head angle, steep seat angle and a long reach. A short seat tube delivers a low standover height giving plenty of space to manoeuvre on the bike when the trail gets technical but still accommodates a long travel dropper post. The geometry means most sizes work for most body sizes so riding style can be factored in. If you want to go crazy fast, take the longer size, for agility, take a shorter size. The Big Trail has hidden talents, in addition to two sets of bottle bosses, there's a trail mount under the top tube giving the ability to carry tools and extra gear on the bike. It's also possible to fit mudguards and a rack if you want to trek further afield.

Merida's most versatile full suspension bike, as with all of the range, the One-Twenty is over forked running 130mm forks with plush 120mm rear travel.The designers considered both riders and mechanics, delivering a playful modern trail bike with a slack head angle, low stand over height and short chain stays that’s easy to maintain. The rear shock is held in place with trunnion mounts which due to the wider mounting increases frame stiffness and reduces shock wear. The designers can run shorter shocks and longer stroke allowing more scope for suspension tuning.All key bolts can be adjusted from one side of the bike with a Torx 30 key without the need for removing the chain set to access the main pivot bolt. While very much a trail bike at heart, the modern yet balanced trail bike geometry, paired with fantastic frame stiffness, created a mid-travel bike that is super capable on rough trails but also carries speed perfectly on less technically demanding tracks.
