2024 Merida One Forty 8000 - Grey

Trail riding has evolved a long way in a short space of time, but the new ONE-FORTY 8000 represents a radical shift in what such a bike can be expected to do. The new, lightweight, all-carbon frame has hyper-modern trail geometry to deliver out-of-this-world climbing performance with utterly planted downhill capability thanks to our new sizing system that pairs riders perfectly with the handling they want. Full 29er wheels and Fox Performance suspension plus SRAM GX wireless drivetrain offer flawless performance to match.

The new ONE-FORTY is the ultimate trail bike, made for the toughest trails in the world. It’s the pinnacle of modern trail riding, with a super-steep 80° seat angle, low front end and bottom bracket allow it to clear the most technical climbs, while longer reach figures across all sizes and a well-balanced 65° head angle mean it’s still more than capable of ripping any descent. With our new sizing system, riders can run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height, with suspension that becomes more progressive as you size up to better cope with heavier/harder riders. We’ve focussed on weight reduction and rolling speed too, for improved efficiency. All bikes come with long travel dropper posts, WIRE PORT cable routing and a reliable threaded bottom bracket plus carbon frames have on-board tool storage and FidLock magnetic bottle cages.
