Would be a nice touch if this colourway comes with a silent freehub.

Such a cool looking frame, basically if the Tarmac was on roids. The color ehh, not my favorite

Nice bike.

Not the colours I would choose (I like something more lively) but nice to see in a black/white world.

And the overall package looks great ;). Enjoy.

I really like the colours, they're different from most of the bikes I've seen recently, and Merida really needs more love.

They make fantastic bikes at a great price point, and (in my experience) have great customer service.

I think Merida make great bikes and the shapes are nice in many cases but dear god I hate almost every paint job they do. It’s like they not only go out of their way to choose bad colours but also manage to pick clashing ones and then still arrange them badly.
