Description

The Merida Big Trail 200 is a fun packed mountain bike which combines the simplicity of a hardtail with long travel excitement. The Big Trail reignites a bike with modern trail geometry, big 29er wheels and long travel for grip and comfort. This bike is all about bringing the most out of a hardtail which is easy to set up, maintain, affordable and can be just as fun as a full suspension mountain bike. The lightweight alloy frame with internally routed cables is paired with a Suntour XCM32 Fork with 120mm travel and lockout for versatile trail capabilities. The modern trail geometry ensures that this bike can descend with speed even on technical trails and still climb with ease thanks to the central seating position over the bottom bracket. Ride aggressively on trails all day long with the 1×10 speed Shimano Deore drivetrain which is incredibly proficient for an entry level bike. Add in the Tektro Hydraulic Disc brakes for powerful braking and this bike is flat out fun, ready to corner with aggression and confidence. Spend all day riding with fixing points for two bottles and hidden rack, fender and kickstand mounts for anyone that wants to make this bike a capable commuter. The 200 is the entry point for the brand new Big Trail range, step up to the Big Trail 400 and you get a very similar ride, just with a better fork and the added bonus of a Merida Comp TR Dropper Seat Post – a rare inclusion on a Merida hardtail. The Merida Big Trail 200 brings back big and bold fun for an awesome riding experience and great value in the Big Trail 200 in particular.
