  1. Hi Guys, My bike fell over in the house - dog knocked it over and with it the derailleur broke off at the hanger (i think). I have attached a picture and was hoping you guys could clarify? The bike is 3 months old (Merida Ninety-Six 800 - 2018). Thanks guys

  4. Better is the enemy of good: This was the motto that MERIDA’s head of R&D Jürgen Falke and his team were following when developing the fourth generation of the SCULTURA road bike platform. Being the lightest frame in MERIDA’s line-up, this frame has always been built to conquer long, steep climbs. But as extensive wind tunnel testing by German magazine Tour showed, the SCULTURA was not a top contender in terms of aerodynamics. Thus there was a clear objective for the new frame: It had to be yet a bit lighter, but more importantly it had to become more aerodynamic. Another goal was to increase the vertical compliance of the rear triangle. Click here to view the article

  14. I am keen on going road bike, and would like to hear opinions from Hubbers on my two choices. Option 1: Merida Scultura 905 full carbon with Ultegra and Alex Road Aero rims, weight approx 8.6 kg. Option 2: Silverback Kansas full carbon with Ultegra and Ultegra tubeless rims, weight approx. 7.8 kg. Can get both bikes for more or less the same special price, which I will rather not mention. So money is not the real option, more the quality of the bike. Your valued expertise in this field will be highly appreciated.
  15. I am a new buyer on the MTB scene, and I am interested in buying the Merida Matts TFS 500 D. I just want some opinions from other mountain bikers about it. Especially the breaks on it. It has Avid Juicy 3 185 (disck) is it any good, or bad or average? frankiefiggs2007-04-18 04:46:16
  16. I am still doing some research...what would you take, the Zaskar has a great frame but the components are better on the Merida....what would you take for just under R10 000????
  17. What do you think about this bike? The '06 version with disc brakes went for just over 6.5k (excl discount). How does the Magura hydraulic rim brakes rate? Speeds27FrameMATTS TFSColor1.

  18. Im buying this frame tomorrow for +- 9k and wanted to know the opinions of fellow hubbers if it's good value for money. it's a full carbon bike btw and here is a link to the bike. Any thoughts of other frames I should consider in my price range. I can also get a Silverback Kansas frame for about a k less ,but I like the look of this frame more. http://www2.merida-bikes.com/en_INT/Bikes.Detail.114
  19. Merida is a Taiwan-based firm that was founded in 1972 to supply Raleigh with bikes ? the first Merida factory was actually a replica of the Raleigh Nottingham factory. Merida claims it was also the first bike brand to develop a robot welding facility. Its UK operation, set up in 1995, accounts for a small proportion of the bikes it sells Europe-wide, but with its 2008 range looking better than ever, we expect to see plenty more Merida bikes out on the trails. Merida also makes bikes for loads of other brands, and its output from its three factories in Taiwan and China makes it one of the biggest bike manufacturers on the planet. taken from: http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/frames/mountain/product/ninety-six-team-d-08-31611
  20. Can somebody please help ? Im a MTB rider looking to purchase a road bike so that i can get some extra time in saddle. Cant decide between the Raleigh RC6000 ('06 model) that cajees have on special or the Merida 904. Is it worth spending the extra R2000.00 on the merida or will i be happy with the RC6000 taking into account i wont be riding the road that mutch ? Both bikes have Shimano 105 on.
  21. Buy a (insert your favourite bike brand here) ! Ok I can't change my bike but whats the most cost effective way to shed some weight. Specs Hardtail Merida Matts LX Champion XT shifters and DRs BB bearing is a std (ie not external) Not great wheels Hydraulic RNCYC (I think) brakes I think the wheel set is the best place to start. If so what would you suggest, considering value for money?
  22. My current ride is a Merida AM5000 D with full XTR but a friend has a Cannondale Carbon Rush Lefty for sale with XT on it. Do i keep my current ride or try sell sell it and go with the Cannondale ?
  23. I have decided to start cycling, and need some assistance on which road bike to purchase. I am looking at the Merida 901 or the Trek 1.2. Which bike is better/more value for money?
  24. I am looking at buying a Merida 903. I went to a few shops and teh price is pretty much the same. They do however have two different versions of it. The one is Red and Black, and the other one is only matt black. I can even see it on the Merida website that the show the red and black one and then have a link to "Additional Models" under which the black only one is listed. My question is, will both of these then be 2008 models, isn't it strange that one bike with exactly the same specs comes out at the same time with different colour schemes?
  25. anybody know where you can get merida kit from?
