Merida One-Sixty FR 400 2027 Full Suspension Mountain Bike
The Merida One-Sixty FR 400 2027 is a full-suspension freeride mountain bike built for hard-hitting bike-park riding and demanding freeride terrain. Its Lite III aluminium frame is paired with a DVO Onyx 38 Core fork and DVO Jade X Core rear shock, with 180 mm of front suspension travel providing a long-travel setup for rough trails and challenging descents.
A mixed-wheel configuration combines a 29 inch front wheel with a 27.5 inch rear wheel, while Shimano CUES U6000 shifting and hydraulic disc brakes provide drivetrain and braking control. Merida Comp TR II aluminium wheels with Continental Kryptotal-F and Kryptotal-R tyres complete the freeride-focused build.

Freeride-Focused Aluminium Platform
The One-Sixty FR 400 uses Merida’s Lite III aluminium frame with next-generation enduro geometry. Boost axle spacing, internal cable routing, a threaded bottom bracket and long seatpost insertion depth contribute to a practical platform for demanding riding, while the frame accommodates tyres up to 2.5 inch.

A DVO Onyx 38 Core fork provides 180 mm of front suspension travel, with a DVO Jade X Core shock handling the rear suspension. This long-travel combination equips the One-Sixty FR 400 for bike-park and freeride use where suspension capability and control over rough terrain are priorities.

A Continental Kryptotal-F 29 x 2.4 front tyre is paired with a Kryptotal-R 27.5 x 2.4 rear tyre, creating a dedicated front and rear combination for demanding off-road riding. A frame flip chip also provides compatibility with a 29er configuration.
