Merida Speeder 100 2023 frame L

Merida is one of the generally recognized leaders in the bicycle industry. However, it’s quite possible to buy a bike from her and not go broke. The best proof of this is the Speeder 100 2023 hybrid model for fitness and daily trips through the “concrete jungle”.

Lightweight design

Speeder borrowed from its senior colleagues a lightweight and durable carbon fork with the highest torsional rigidity, which effectively dampens vibrations from road irregularities. Adding a lightweight aluminum frame to this, we get a city bike weighing just over 10 kg assembled - this is taking into account 28-inch wheels on eccentric bushings and all the attachments.

Wide variety of speeds

The body kit for the model was a 24-speed transmission from a groupset of Shimano Tourney and Acera components. This variety of gears allows the rider to precisely dose pedaling force depending on the terrain and road conditions. To change gears, a Shimano EF505 trigger shifter is used on the right handlebar of the straight handlebar.

Hydraulic disc brakes

In the urban rhythm of travel, it is extremely important to quickly adapt to the speed of traffic and stop. Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors are responsible for slowing down the city bike. The only drawback of the model is the minimum equipment “out of the box” - the equipment includes only a protective cover for the chain in the area of the pedal block. However, the bike has all the necessary mounting hardware for other accessories, including a V-mount seat mount for a multitool or tool bag.
