Merida One-sixty 8000 29/27.5 Carbon Mountain Bike

Description

Totally planted thoroughly sorted and outrageously capable. The all-new One-Sixty 8000 delivers top-level performance with a lightweight carbon fibre frame with radical geometry and sizing plus the ability to run 29er or mixed 29”/27.5” wheels. The new FAST kinematic is paired to a high-end RockShox 170mm Zeb fork and Super Deluxe shock while the SRAM GX wireless transmission gives clean precise shifts every time. The One-Sixty is a radical all-new design that pushes Merida's hard-hitting enduro platform to new heights. Just as well because once it’s there it’s ready to rip the longest toughest descents too.
Features
Rock Shox Super Deluxe shock with 170mm RockShox Zeb fork. 1 x 12 SRAM GX Eagle wireless drivetrain Race Face Turbine R30 wheelset with lifetime warranty. Shimano XT 4 pot hydraulic disc brakes and travel adjustable dropper post.
Merida's new suspension system uses a flexstay design with an adjustable rocker so whether you choose to run it as a full 29er (162mm travel) or mixed 29/27.5” setup (171mm travel) the geometry is preserved. There’s a radically steep 79° seat tube angle for goat-like climbing and slack 64° head angle plus 170mm fork to deal with downhill trail chaos. New sizing allows riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height while suspension becomes more progressive as you size up all with long-travel dropper posts. Wire Port cable routing plus reliable threaded bottom bracket round out the package while carbon frame models offer on-board tool storage and FidLock magnetic bottle cages.
