2021 Merida One-Twenty 400 Dual Suspension MTB

ONE-TWENTY LITE FRAME

Lightweight 6066 series aluminium triple butted and hydroformed frameset with ‘Smooth welding’ and internal cable routing. Tapered head tube for precise steering, Boost standard and rear through axle for rear end stiffness. Floating shock provides 120 mm of travel.

NON-SLIP TIGHTENING

Selected bolts can be tightened via a TORX 30 key from just one side, without running the risk that the opposite side slips or turns, allowing faster and more straightforward tightening of important hardware components.

FLOAT LINK SUSPENSION

The lower shock mount moves with the system to deliver plushness and pedalling efficiency. Our engineers can precisely influence the transmission ratio and progression, which means that a ‘Float Link’ system is very sensitive, delivering great support in mid-travel and the appearance of more travel that the model name suggests. The rear end creates the feeling of almost bottomless travel whilst remaining perfectly controlled when climbing.

TRUNNION MOUNT

A trunnion mount shock gives our frame designers more flexibility by using a shorter shock with increased stroke. Combined with the ball bearing bushing of the upper mount, shock sensitivity is increased, and the suspension performance can be perfectly tuned.

STEALTH DROPPER SEAT POST

A dropper post is allowing the rider to get the saddle out of the way when the gradient gets steeper, giving him/her more space to manoeuver and control over their bike. The fitted dropper posts featuring internal cable routing and remote levers, creating a cleaner look and allowing easier 'on the go' saddle height adjustment.

MODERN TRAIL BIKE GEOMETRY

The 'classic' ONE-TWENTY has a very low stand over height, giving the rider ample space to manoeuvre when the terrain demands it. The slack head angle and short chainstays give the bike a playful character while offering the perfect compromise between being a great climber and an agile trail bike.

THREE FRAME OPTIONS

The new ONE-TWENTY is now available in three frame variations: a super light full carbon version, a carbon front triangle paired with hydroformed 6066 triple butted aluminium rear end and a more budget friendly all aluminium version. All frames feature Boost technology.
