Merida One Sixty 8000 Black 2023

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. 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 Degree seat tube angle for goat-like climbing and slack 64 Degree 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.



Merida Sizing -

X-Short: 145cm - 165cm
Short: 155cm - 175cm
Mid: 165cm - 185cm
Long: 175cm - 195cm
X-Long: 185cm+


Merida's latest range of mountain bikes makes use of a slightly new approach to sizing. Merida encourage riders to consider their riding style when selecting a frame size.

For example the Mid size frame is suitable for riders of heights between 165-185cm. This means a rider of height 175cm could select a Short frame if the preference is agility, Mid for a balanced ride or Long for stability.
