A Versatile Mountain Bike for Every Trail

The Merida Big Nine 500 redefines the mountain biking experience with its perfect blend of comfort, control, and versatility. This 29er hardtail combines cutting-edge technology with thoughtful design to create an exceptional ride for both novice and experienced cyclists alike.

Frame and Geometry: Comfort Meets Performance

At the heart of this bike lies a double-butted, smooth-welded aluminum frame. Moreover, its slightly relaxed geometry offers a more upright riding position compared to race-oriented models. Consequently, riders experience less strain on their lower back and improved visibility of the trail ahead.

Smooth Rolling with 29-inch Wheels

The 29-inch wheels provide excellent “roll-over” ability, effortlessly tackling obstacles on the trail. Furthermore, these larger wheels maintain speed efficiently, ensuring a smooth and fast ride across various terrains. As a result, cyclists can cover more ground with less effort.

Suspension: Taming the Trail

Up front, the Manitou Markhor air suspension fork with 100mm of travel absorbs bumps and vibrations. Additionally, a remote lockout feature allows riders to adjust the fork’s performance on the fly. This combination ensures optimal control and comfort in diverse trail conditions.

Powerful and Precise Drivetrain

Equipped with a Shimano Deore 2×11-speed drivetrain, this bike offers a wide range of gears for any terrain. Consequently, whether climbing steep hills or speeding down descents, riders always find the right gear. The reliable shifting performance enhances the overall riding experience.

Reliable Braking System

Shimano hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful and consistent stopping power in all weather conditions. Therefore, riders can confidently navigate technical descents and sudden obstacles, knowing they have reliable braking at their fingertips.

Thoughtful Details for Enhanced Performance

Internal cable routing not only gives the bike a clean, sleek look but also protects the cables from damage. Furthermore, the MERIDA COMP CC seatpost and MERIDA COMP SL saddle ensure comfort during long rides. These details contribute to the bike’s overall performance and durability.

Versatility for Various Riding Styles

While excelling in cross-country and marathon races, this bike also caters to recreational riders. Its balanced design makes it suitable for everything from casual trail rides to more challenging mountain expeditions. Therefore, it adapts to the evolving needs of the rider.

Built to Last

With a maximum weight capacity of 135 kg, this bike demonstrates its robust construction. Additionally, high-quality components like the KMC X11 chain and Maxxis Ikon tires ensure longevity and consistent performance. Consequently, riders can enjoy their investment for years to come.
