Discover MERIDA at BIKE24

From aerodynamic road bikes like the REACTO to rugged mountain bikes, powerful e-bikes, and kids' bikes, MERIDA's lineup is built for every kind of ride. Behind every model is an in-house engineering team that takes each bike from the initial concept to the finished frame. MERIDA's gravel bikes show just how much expertise goes into every MERIDA bike. Matej Mohorič won the 2023 UCI Gravel World Championships aboard the MERIDA SILEX, while racing technologies developed for the MTB World Cup and UCI WorldTour continue to influence bikes across the lineup. Discover the MERIDA bike that matches your riding style at BIKE24.

The MERIDA mission

MERIDA was founded by Ike Tseng in 1972 with a simple ambition: to change how Taiwanese-built bicycles were perceived around the world. A MERIDA bike is your companion for unforgettable rides – delivering that little bit extra. More than five decades later, that mission still shapes every bike MERIDA builds. It introduced ISO-certified quality management in the 1990s – years before it became common throughout the industry. MERIDA has been competing at the highest level of racing for decades, joining the MTB World Cup in 2000 and the UCI WorldTour in 2013. Today, many of these race-proven technologies are available to every rider. Many carbon and aluminum frames are backed by a lifetime warranty, underscoring MERIDA's confidence in its engineering and manufacturing.

Why riders choose MERIDA bicycles

Tight corners, explosive sprints, long climbs – these are the moments where MERIDA gives you the edge.

  • Complete lineup covering road, gravel, mountain, e-bikes, and kids' bikes
  • AGILOMETER sizing lets you choose between more agile or more stable handling
  • Race-proven technology developed in the MTB World Cup and UCI WorldTour
  • More than 50 years of manufacturing experience in MERIDA's own factory in Taiwan
  • Lifetime warranty on many carbon and aluminum frames

The MERIDA bicycles lineup

Every MERIDA bike category is built around a clear purpose. Premium road bikes like the REACTO, ridden by Bahrain Victorious, are engineered for aerodynamics and stiffness. Gravel bikes like the SILEX combine speed with versatility on pavement and gravel, while the MTB range focuses on full-suspension trail and enduro models like the ONE-SIXTY. MERIDA's e-bikes pair seamlessly integrated drive systems from Bosch, Shimano, or MAHLE with reliable support for commuting, leisure rides, and off-road adventures. The same thoughtful design extends to the kids' lineup, giving younger riders lightweight bikes built to inspire confidence from day one. Whatever your riding style, you'll find the right MERIDA bike at BIKE24.

Choose the model that's right for you:

  • MERIDA road bikes: REACTO, SCULTURA, and TIME WARP – from endurance rides to time trials
  • MERIDA gravel bikes: SILEX and MISSION – built for adventures on pavement and gravel
  • MERIDA mountain bikes: Full-suspension trail and enduro bikes for demanding terrain
  • MERIDA e-bikes: Integrated Bosch, Shimano, and MAHLE drive systems for everyday riding and adventure
  • MERIDA kids' bikes: Lightweight hardtails that make cycling more fun from day one
  • MERIDA frames: Carbon framesets from the REACTO, SCULTURA, MISSION, and SILEX families for custom builds

Key MERIDA technologies

From frame geometry and carbon layup to aluminum manufacturing, every technology serves a clear purpose – delivering noticeably better ride quality. Rather than relying on standout features, MERIDA brings together materials, frame design, and geometry tailored to each frame size, to create bikes that feel balanced, responsive, and built to last.

AGILOMETER

AGILOMETER is MERIDA's size-specific geometry concept. Instead of simply scaling frame dimensions, selected models let you choose your frame size based on how you want the bike to handle. A shorter reach creates a more agile ride, while a longer reach provides greater stability.

CF grading system

MERIDA classifies its carbon frames from CF2 to CF5. Higher grades use more advanced carbon fibers to reduce weight while maintaining the same proven geometry. In the SCULTURA range, for example, the CF3 frame weighs around 997 g, while the flagship CF5 version comes in at just 861 g. The grading system shows you exactly what's in your frame instead of relying on vague carbon marketing terms like "High Modulus."

Hydroforming and technoforming

During hydroforming, MERIDA uses a high-pressure oil-and-water mixture to shape aluminum tubes inside precision molds, while technoforming relies on a metal core to mechanically form the tubing. Combined with double- and triple-butted tubing, these manufacturing processes create complex, aerodynamic aluminum frames with an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio – all while retaining aluminum's cost advantage over carbon.

Frequently asked questions about MERIDA


How are MERIDA bikes priced?

MERIDA offers bikes across a wide price range, from around €1,500 for aluminum entry-level models like the SILEX 400 to more than €10,000 for flagship bikes like the REACTO TEAM. Within each model family, different builds often share the same frame platform but vary in frame material, carbon grade, components, and wheelsets. That means you get proven technology and reliable specifications across a wide range of price points.

What warranty does MERIDA offer?

MERIDA offers a lifetime frame warranty against frame breakage for the original owner on many carbon and aluminum frames from the 2015 model year onward. Full-suspension models with 140 mm of travel or more, as well as dirt jump bikes, are covered by shorter warranty periods. Carbon and aluminum rigid forks are backed by a 5-year warranty.
