Bike Radar's 2023 Enduro Bike of the Year
Evolution or revolution? How about both? The new ONE-SIXTY is a radical new design that pushes the enduro platform to new heights. Once there, it’s ready to rip the longest, toughest descents. An all-new suspension platform paired with some radical geometry numbers and innovative features make the ONE-SIXTY one of the most capable and well thought through bikes in the enduro world.
With impressive geometry, well-balanced suspension and a great parts package for the cash, the Merida One-Sixty offers a seriously exciting ride and feels incredibly capable just about everywhere.
