Merida Dirt 500 Dirt Jump Bike

The Merida Dirt 500 is a tough and affordable dirt jump bike built for pump tracks, jump lines and street sessions. The 6061 aluminium frame is strong and gyro ready, with geometry designed for control in the air and stability on landings. A Manitou Circus 100 mm fork, 26 inch wheels and a simple singlespeed drivetrain create a reliable setup that is easy to maintain and ready for repeated hits. Hydraulic braking at the rear and a cable front brake give predictable stopping power for new tricks and fast laps.
