Merida Big Seven 20 Mountain Bike 2025 - Hardtail MTB

This bike features a TFS IV frame built from double-butted and technoformed 6061 aluminium—strong, lightweight, and tailored for agile off-road handling. Designed with modern features like full internal cable routing, a tapered head tube for potential fork upgrades, and chainstay-mounted disc brakes for better protection and stopping efficiency.
Key Features:
- Double-butted 6061 aluminium TFS IV frame with internal cable routing
- SR Suntour XCT30 HLO fork with 100mm coil travel and lockout
- Shimano 8-speed drivetrain with ESSA rear mech and shifters
- Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors
- 27.5" wheels with 2.2" Merida K1080 off-road tyres
- Tapered head tube allows for future fork upgrades
- Available with 0% APR finance
Up front, the SR Suntour XCT30 HLO suspension fork delivers 100mm of coil-sprung travel—enough to take the sting out of rooty trails and bumpy bridleways. The hydraulic lockout lets you firm things up when climbing or on smooth ground, boosting your pedalling efficiency.
Shimano’s ESSA 8-speed drivetrain offers reliable shifting performance and a wide 11–45T cassette range, ideal for tackling varied terrain. The Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes provide predictable stopping power, even in the wet.
Rolling on agile 27.5” wheels wrapped in grippy 2.2” Merida K1080 tyres, the Big Seven 20 balances speed and control, making it a great fit for smaller riders or those who prefer a nimble ride feel over chunky stability. And with plenty of frame mounts for mudguards and a kickstand, it’s practical too.
Whether you're dipping into mountain biking or upgrading from a basic bike, the Merida Big Seven 20 is a rock-solid start to your trail-riding journey.
