The Merida Big.Trail 500 is a nice upgrade from the impressive Merida Big.Trail 400. It's still incredibly fun, combining the simplicity of a hardtail with long travel excitement to create an All Mountain Bike that's as at home on technical descents as it is climbing. The Big.Trail offers modern trail geometry, big 29" wheels and long travel for a grippy, yet comfortable ride. Merida has designed the Big.Trail 500 to get the most out of a hardtail that is easy to set up, maintain and affordable. With the Big.Trail 500, you get an All Mountain Hardtail perfect for a one-bike garage - it completely replaces the need for a dual-suspension mountain bike, offering unparalleled fun and versatility!
