The Merida Matts J. 20 disc is a kid's bike made for little adventurers who still want comfort, safety and fun. Designed to be ready for whatever adventures are thrown at them, whether it's in the local neighbourhood, at the park, or even on those dirt tracks, the Matts J. 20 disc is perfect for kids who are a bit more adventurous. The lightweight alloy frame is much easier to handle and control than a steel frame which is often standard in kids' bikes, while the 40mm Suntour front suspension will help soak up any of the bumps making it a smoother, more comfortable ride. The disc brakes give extra stopping power and more confidence when braking offroad, adding extra safety to their ride. The quality Shimano drivetrain will make changing the gears a breeze, while the 7-speeds help make hills and harder terrain that bit easier. All of these high-quality components are matched with the kid-specific aluminium frame, using the same attention to detail that Merida put into their adult bikes meaning you can rest easy knowing that this bike will not let you down! With all these amazing features making riding easy and comfortable, the J. 20 disc
Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Disc Brakes provide you with better braking performance in all conditions, unlike rim brakes which can be heavily impacted by dust and water, disc brakes maintain control in all conditions. These brakes give you confidence that you'll stop when you need to and with a hydraulic system you will have greater control and have better feedback through your levers, hydraulic systems aren't prone to cable stretch and self adjust as your brake pads wear down - meaning you can focus on the riding!
Aluminium Frame
This double-butted aluminium frame offers strength and durability while keeping the weight down. Perfect for kids who can be hard on their bikes, this frame will stand up to the knocks while also still being light enough for them to handle with ease.
Kid-Specific Geometry
Designed with kids in mind, Merida kid's bikes offer geometry suited to little people. The lower standover height helps with confidence and the comfortable kid-specific finishes make this bike fun and easy to use.
