Merida One-Forty 600

The float link system and geometry of the One-Sixty inspired the creation of the journalists’ favourite – a 140mm trail bike 

“with great pedalling efficiency, brilliant suspension and top handling fun” (MBR) 
or “one of the best mid-travel bikes we have ridden” (MBUK).

Characterised by short chain stays, a long reach, and short stem with wide bars to deliver fun packed yet confidence inspiring handling.  The lower shock mount moves with the suspension system delivering sensitive response characteristics with great support in mid travel and the feel of travel greater than 140mm.  Trunnion mounts add to the tunability allowing for the use of a shorter shock with increased stroke. The wider mounts with ball bearing bushings increase stiffness and shock longevity. 

The frame is made of our latest grade of aluminium, light and strong for the demands of trail riding. 6016 series triple butted, hydroformed aluminium tubing with smooth welding.  Tapered head tube for precise steering, Boost axle standard for stronger wheels, Smart Entry cable clamping for rattle free running.  3040g – M +/- 3%
