Merida Big.Trail 800 (2017)

The 2017 Merida Big.Trail 800 is a mid-range trail bike. Built on a light, responsive aluminum chassis, the RockShox Yari fork providing smooth, supple travel, the 800 thrives in the rough stuff; the single-ring Shimano drivetrain provides quick, clean shifts, the powerful hydraulic disc brakes deliver sure stops in all conditions and precise control just when it's needed, and the fat Maxxis Rekons hold on to everything, bearing up very well at low pressures with an immense footprint. Gearing is optimal for tricky navigation.
A very good trail bike.
