Merida Big Trail 500 Mountain Bike 2023 Gold

Trail riding is your passion and you love the simplicity of a hardtail as well as the way it connects you to the track. The Merida Big Trail 500 Mountain Bike is your perfect companion, featuring a playful yet stable geometry that will deliver confidence and inspires you to go that little bit further. Chunky 29er tyres, a long travel fork and a long dropper post increase that confidence and capability even further.We often associate 'trail fun' and 'trail capability' with more and more full suspension travel because long-travel bikes are getting more capable on the way down and on the way back up again. At the same time, the trail hardtail has developed quietly in its shadow. After being absent from this segment, we returned to the trails with a bang onboard our BIG.TRAIL. Meridas trail hardtails took the bike press and trail riders by storm and have managed to perfectly combine a modern trail bike geometry with long-travel forks and chunky 29er wheels for amazing corner grip and comfort. Bikeboard.cc confirmed that they 'nailed it', while MBR, IMB and many more confirmed that the BIG.TRAIL is firmly at the top of the trail hardtail game. If you haven't heard or you're not yet a proud owner of it, then welcome to the BIG.TRAIL which offers simplified and hassle-free trail fun in spades. Available from S to XXL giving the BIG.TRAIL ample size and reach options.
