One Sixty FR 400 2026

The essence of the One-Sixty FR is full on fun at a value for money price, these bikes are not garage queens, they are for endless hours of sending it, Based around a tough aluminium frame the component selection is focussed on delivering the best tyres, brakes and suspension possible at the price, not on lightweight kit that won't last the course. The One-Sixty FR is designed for the toughest possible conditions and is rated to Category 5 and comes with a 5 year frame warranty. The Agilometer sizing concept takes account of riding style, allowing riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height, while suspension becomes more progressive as you size up, all with long-travel dropper posts. Wire Port cable routing plus reliable threaded bottom bracket round out the package,

Merida Sizing - 

• X-Short: 145cm - 165cm
• Short: 155cm - 175cm
• Mid: 165cm - 185cm
• Long: 175cm - 195cm
• X-Long: 185cm+

Merida's latest range of mountain bikes makes use of a slightly new approach to sizing. Merida encourage riders to consider their riding style when selecting a frame size. 

For example the Mid size frame is suitable for riders of heights between 165-185cm. This means a rider of height 175cm could select a Short frame if the preference is agility, Mid for a balanced ride or Long for stability.
