Merida Speeder 500 (2017)

The 2017 Merida Speeder 500 is a high-end flat-bar road bike. An ace companion for urban assaults, the 500 is a traditional road bike beefed up for the challenges of city travels; aggressive angles on the light, responsive aluminum frameset pairing with the carbon/alloy flat front end for fast, nimble maneuvering, Shimano Ultegra shifting is quick and clean, M446 hydraulic disc brakes help the through-traffic dance and bring power in any conditions, and sure-footed Maxxis Detonators shed water and offer confident traction.
A good city bike.
