Comes with 12 months free servicing and comes fully assembled ready to ride.

The Merida Big.Trail 500 Hardtail Trail Bike is an excellent choice for anyone eager to conquer trails or embark on off-road adventures. With its 140mm Rock Shox Psylo Silver RC Fork, this bike handles bumps with ease, while the grippy 29-inch Maxxis Minion and Dissector tires ensure a solid grip on any terrain. The Shimano CUES 1x11 drivetrain delivers efficient power transfer, and the reliable Shimano hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent stopping power in all conditions. For technical descents, the Merida Expert dropper post offers added control and confidence.

140mm Front Suspension

The RockShox Psylo Silver RC forks are designed to absorb bumps on your ride, making rougher trails a breeze while ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride on roads and concrete.

Trail-Focused Geometry

The Big.Trail 500’s progressive geometry enhances handling on steep and challenging terrain. With an extended reach for added stability and an increased stack height that allows for easy front wheel lift without feeling too stretched, this bike is built for confidence on the trail. The short, straight seat tube provides a low standover height, while still accommodating long travel dropper posts, giving riders greater freedom of movement.

Wire Port Headset

The Wire Port headset features a new two-piece top-cap design that keeps cables safely tucked away, eliminating rattling and maintaining a clean, uncluttered cockpit. For extra tidiness and protection, the gear cable is also routed through the chainstays.
