HavocJ Posted December 19, 2014 Share Thanx, if you can perhaps explain why you say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saag Posted December 19, 2014 Share The 1000 Lite is just that, it is much lighter than the 600 (according to Merida website anyway). It also has better specked components overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted December 19, 2014 Share Agreed, last year we went for the big 7 lite for the wife, and it was better specced than the newer version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matts 300 Posted December 20, 2014 Share I've got the 1000 lite and love it! Haven't looked at the 2015 models, but last year the frame of the 1000 lite just looked way better than that of the 100,300 etc. johanpre44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed-Zulu Posted December 22, 2014 Share Jip, can't really understand Merida's thinking...the 1000 light frame is vastly superior to their other offerings...also ridw one and it's up there with my previous alu Giant XTC Team frame for geometry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
