The Merida Big Nine Team is a top of the line hardtail mountain bike that is absolute top quality from top to bottom, with high performance features that make it the top of the Merida Big Nine range. The CF5 frame is made with a Nano Matrix Carbon frame which has fibres bonded together with an epoxy resin and added nano particles, increasing impact resistance by up to 40% and protecting the integrity of the carbon frame. An inflatable bladder in the construction of the frame to ensure there are no wrinkles inside the tube as these can add weight and create weakness. This results in a lighter, stiffer and stronger frame. The cables, housings and brake hoses are clamped under tension to prevent rattling when the trail gets rough and all inlets are completely interchangeable to deal with potential Di2 upgrades, hydraulic hoses, brake cable and gear cable housings etc.
The Big Nine Team has 29” wheels and 100mm travel suspension fork with a lockout to smooth the bumps on the trail and this is ideal for riding more efficiently on smooth surfaces as well as climbing out of the saddle. It is equipped with a 12 speed SRAM XX1 Eagle drivetrain and SRAM Ultimate disc brakes for reliability regardless of the conditions and improved control. The Merida Big Nine Team is a versatile mountain bike which is ideal for cross-country races and high performance. With a lightweight and durable carbon frame, lockout on the suspension fork and quality range of SRAM XX1 Eagle parts, this bike is fast, efficient and will enable you to get the most out of yourself in a competitive environment. This is a top of the line mountain bike and the performance truly does exceed expectations. For peace of mind and reassurance, MERIDA frames come with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Restricted to the original purchaser of the bike with proof of purchase. (Frames from model year 2015 onwards) Conditions apply. The lifespan of a bike is up to ten years, for “intended use” see instruction manual.
Features
Nano Matrix Carbon 2019: To protect the integrity of carbon frames, the fibres are bonded together with an epoxy resin with added nano particles, increasing impact resistance by up to 40%.
AWS 2019: When creating the individual carbon elements, an inflatable bladder is used to ensure there are no wrinkles inside the tube as these can add weight and create weakness. This results in a lighter, stiffer and stronger frame.
Flex-Stay 2019: The seat and chainstay profile and carbon lay-up schedule are adapted to work like a flat leaf spring, absorbing surface bumps and reducing vibrations.
X-taper headtube 2019: Using a tapered head tube with 1 1/8" bearings in the top and 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" in the bottom creates superb stiffness and precise, confidence inspiring steering.
Smart Entry 2019: Cables, housings and brake hoses are clamped under tension to prevent rattling when the trail gets rough. All inlets are completely interchangeable to deal with Di2, hydraulic hoses, brake cable and gear cable housings etc.
Di2 Ready 2019: Bikes/frames with the symbol ‘Di2 Ready’ are prepared for the installation of Di2 technology with battery mounting in the seat post or within the fork steerer.
Internal Cable 2019: Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. The bike looks neat, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt.
Remote Lock-Out 2019: The suspension fork and/or rear shock can be locked, either directly or via a ‘remote control’ lever on the handlebar.
Smooth Welding 2019: Sometimes called ‘double pass welding’, a second pass over the weld gives a clean organic look to the frame. At first glance you will be convinced it is carbon.
C-s post mount disc 2019: Post mount disc brake calipers fit directly onto the seat stay for a strong and light connection whilst a chainstay post mount positions the caliper on the chainstay within the rear triangle for extra protection and better distribution of braking forces. Another benefit is that internal cable routing is also easier and neater via the chainstay.
15-100 thru-axle 2019: Selected front forks use a 100 mm wide through axle 12 or 15 mm in diameter to increase lateral stiffness. A 142 mm wide 12 mm rear axle fixed directly into the frame increases rear end stiffness whilst simplifying wheel removal and replacement.
