Tredz product input

In 2019 we were invited along to the global launch of Merida’s 2020 range in Germany. After a full day of riding, the conversation moved to the possible creation of a hardcore hardtail for UK riders. With our input, all of our thoughts were eagerly scribbled down by Merida’s R&D guy Rey; 29-inch wheels, 140mm fork, boost standard, bolt-through axles, 1x drivetrain. The result is the all-new Big Trail, much loved by the press and ready to ride.

Modern geometry

Geometry is the main defining aspect that dictates how a bike feels and its riding characteristics. The new Big Trail has a 65.5-degree head angle to handle the steep stuff, a steep seat angle to maximise pedalling efficiency and a short seat tube to help get the saddle low and out of the way. These features all make the bike feel fun and manoeuvrable over any terrain.

Components and spec

With fast-rolling big 29" wheels, wide and sticky Maxxis tyres, capable 140mm forks and slick 1x Shimano drivetrains all built around the light but strong aluminium frame with its modern geometry, the new Big Trail is ready to shred straight from the box.

Internal Cable Routing

Neat, tidy and rattle free. The cables and hose are routed through the frame. The cables and hose are protected from mud, grit and filth.

Merida Big Trail

Boost Technology

Up to trend and compatible with upgrades, the entire Big Trail range has Boost technology at the front and rear. The axle standard of 110 mm (front) and 148 mm (rear) allows for a wider spoke angle, meaning a stiffer and stronger wheel.

Tyre Clearance

The Big Trail rolls on 29er wheels with huge tyre clearance to fit up to 2.5" tyres, allowing the newest wide trail tyres available.

Say goodbye to sweaty backpacks on longer days with two bottle cage mounts. Carry twice the water or other bottle cage mount storage solutions. Benefit from the multiple positions to incorporate a frame bag along with a bottle cage.
