Merida Big Nine Limited Cross Country Race Bike Glossy/Matt Race Red

The Merida Big Nine Limited is a versatile bike, equally great for intense race action and relaxed off - road adventures. Its triple - butted lightweight aluminium frame has the same XC and marathon - focused geometry as its carbon counterparts. The race - tested single chainring setup with Shimano’s Deore M5100 11 - speed drivetrain gives you a wide gear range in a light and simple package. The Manitou Markhor fork with 100mm travel and remote lockout, along with reliable Tektro hydraulic disc brakes, ensures a comfortable and controlled ride. The 29er wheels roll fast and have excellent ability to go over roots and rocks on the trail. Premium features like internal cable routing (including for an internal dropper post), smart entry cable housing, and a downtube exit make cable maintenance a breeze. Whether you're a daily trail rider or a budding racer, this bike could be your perfect choice.

Using your Merida Big Nine Limited is easy. Just hop on and start pedaling! When you're on the trail, use the 11 - speed Shimano Deore M5100 drivetrain to shift gears according to the terrain. If you need to save energy on flat sections, use the remote lockout on the Manitou Markhor fork. For braking, rely on the Tektro hydraulic disc brakes for quick stops. Remember to wear a helmet and follow all local traffic rules. When it comes to maintenance, regularly clean your bike after rides, especially if you've been in muddy or dirty conditions. Check the tire pressure frequently to ensure a smooth ride. Every few months, take your bike to a professional for a full check - up, including the drivetrain, brakes, and fork. This will keep your bike in top shape for many more adventures.
