27.5&quot; wheels with Shimano hubs and Kenda tyres
Size tuned Merida finishing kit

650b hardtail with sophisticated TFS aluminium trail ready geometry frame, Shimano 1x8 drivetrain, SR Suntour 120&amp;nbsp;mm lockout fork, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes.
Merida&#039;s expertise for over 50 years has been building bombproof aluminium hardtails. The latest generation follows modern mountain bike trends – a longer reach combined with a shorter stem. The geometry features a steeper seat angle and slacker head angle for greater off-road capability but without compromising everyday usability. The sophisticated TFS frames feature: full internal cable routing for a clean, neat set up, tapered headtube offering future upgrade potential, inboard disc brake mounts to protect the brake and maximise stopping power, and dropper post readiness. The new XXS Big Seven size extends the wide range of sizes; Big Nine for taller riders, Big Seven for shorter riders. Riders in the middle can take riding style into account – for speed and efficiency choose a Big Nine, for agility choose a Big Seven.</p></description>

<p>Highlights

Modern trail geometry with long reach, slack head angle and steep seat angle
140&amp;nbsp;mm RockShox Psylo Silver RC air fork
1&amp;nbsp;×&amp;nbsp;10 Shimano CUES drivetrain
Powerful SRAM DB4 four-piston hydraulic disc brakes
Dropper seat post
29&quot; Boost wheels with 2.5&quot; (front) and 2.4&quot; (rear) tyres

Trail-ready hardtail: 29er aluminium hardcore hardtail with RockShox Psylo Silver RC 140&amp;nbsp;mm air-sprung fork, Shimano CUES 1&amp;nbsp;×&amp;nbsp;10 drivetrain and powerful SRAM DB4 four-piston hydraulic disc brakes.
The original Big Trail concept was born from UK dealers working with Merida R&amp;amp;D: 140&amp;nbsp;mm air fork, 29&quot; wheels, single-ring transmission and a dropper post. Now in its 2nd iteration, Big Trail is fun-packed and hugely capable. Progressive geometry pairs a steep 76.5° seat angle with a slack 64.0° head angle for efficient climbing and confident stability when the terrain gets steep or rough. Sizing follows the Agilometer principle so most sizes fit most riders — pick longer for speed and stability, shorter for agility.</p></description>

Affordable trail performance, dialled for UK riding. The Big Trail brings modern trail geometry, 140 mm air fork, 29&quot; wheels and a dropper seat post into a wallet-friendly package that&#039;s as fun as it is capable.
Highlights

Modern trail bike geometry with long reach, slack head angle and steep seat angle
140 mm air-sprung fork for confident off-road control
Shimano CUES 1 x 9 drivetrain
Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes
Dropper seat post fitted as standard
29&quot; Boost-standard wheels with 2.4&quot; tyres

The original Big Trail was born in the UK, designed by riders for the perfect UK trail bike: 140 mm fork, 29&quot; wheels, 1x transmission and a dropper post. The new generation sticks to those principles but refines the package further. With progressive geometry — a steep 76.5° seat angle and slack 64° head angle — it climbs efficiently and descends with confidence. Agilometer sizing means you can pick your size by riding style: longer for stability, shorter for agility.

<p>Highlights

Modern trail bike geometry with long reach, slack head angle and steep seat angle
140&amp;nbsp;mm RockShox Pike Air fork
1&amp;nbsp;×&amp;nbsp;12 Shimano Deore drivetrain
Shimano Deore 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes
Dropper seat post
29&quot; Boost wheels with Reynolds 309 rims – 2.5&quot; front and 2.4&quot; rear tyres

The perfect ingredients for your next trail session – grin-inducing progressive geometry paired with a tough frame, 140&amp;nbsp;mm RockShox Pike Air fork, Shimano Deore 1&amp;nbsp;×&amp;nbsp;12 transmission and powerful Shimano Deore 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes.
The original Big Trail concept was the result of a few UK dealers discussing the ideal UK trail bike with the Merida R&amp;amp;D chief – simple: 140&amp;nbsp;mm air fork, 29&quot; wheels, 1x transmission and a dropper post. Now in its 2nd iteration Big Trail is a fun-packed and hugely capable trail bike. Its progressive geometry combines a steep 76.5° seat angle with a slack 64.0° head angle giving great climbing characteristics and plenty of stability when the terrain gets steep or rough. Sizing follows the Agilometer principle which means most sizes work for most body sizes so that riding style can be factored in. If you want to go fast, take the longer size, for agility, take a shorter size.</p></description>
