Merida Big.Nine 60 Mountain Bike

INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. The bike looks neat, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt.DOWN TUBE EXIT Ensures that internally routed cables and wires can’t move freely and remain easily accessible for servicing.RACELITE 61 ALUMINIUM We use a minimum of 6061 aluminium. The pay back is that it’s possible to make lighter and more advanced frames. We use an additional heat treatment and double-butted wall thicknesses to produce light and stiff frames.TFS – TECHNO FORMING SYSTEM Technoforming is a mechanical forming process, shaping the tubes by using negative moulds, at times combined with an internal metal core.F-MOUNT ‘F-Mount’ equipped bikes have integrated fittings for mud guards (some bikes require model specific mud guards), making fitting fast and simple.K-MOUNT Integrated mount on the chainstay to fit a Merida kickstand (or any commercial kickstand).C-MOUNT ‘C-Mount’ equipped bikes have the fixing points for a rear rack already integrated (some bikes require model specific rear rack), making fitting fast, simple and reliable.

About Merida

German Engineering & Design We design, we test, we build, you ride.Our Dynamic Team Our young and enthusiastic R&D team live, breathe and, unsurprisingly, ride bikes all day long. Creating a bike is very much a team effort with each member contributing a specific skill set with everything coming together in the end.The journey to the shop floor incorporates conceptual planning, integrating colour and graphics into the mix, prototype development and testing, refining pre-production models and – finally – production.The emphasis on quality throughout culminates in our Lifetime Frame Warranty (applies to original purchaser of bikes manufactured since 2011. 120kg weight limit, including equipment; 140kg on e-Bikes).Better Safe Than Sorry! Testing, re-testing and testing again are crucial to our process. We are doing everything we can to provide our customers with the safest, most refined bikes possible. e-Bikes bring even more stringent testing requirements into play. Our in-house labs push our products beyond the industry standards.We work with the top external test laboratories to ensure that Merida bikes can withstand the most demanding trails, the steepest climbs, the heaviest loads, the fastest races and years of commuting.There’s No ‘I’ In Team Merida bikes are still very much ‘made by hand.’The process starts with the individuals in our highly skilled R&D team. From marathon racer to track specialist or Enduro lover and from semi-professional road racer to ironman competitor, our team share the desire to improve our bikes each year.But the development does not stop there; we collaborate with our componentry suppliers, our Pro team and global distributors to drive ongoing improvements and upgrades to our range.Our e-Bikes have been developed through a very close partnership with Shimano, ensuring that new frames and motors are created simultaneously to optimise performance.
