Merida Big Seven 20

650b hardtail with sophisticated TFS aluminium frame, 2 x 8 drivetrain, lockout fork, hydraulic disc brakes, Shimano hubs and chainset. 

Our 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 power

As much Shimano componentry as possible has been added to complement the modern frame and enhance reliability.

There are a wide range of sizes; Big Seven for shorter riders and Big Nine for taller 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 choose a Big Seven.
