Merida Silex + 8000-E 2021 - Gravel Bike
At launch it was hailed as our most comfortable and versatile bike ever. With modern MTB inspired geometry - long top and head tubes and a short stem offers nimble, confidence-inspiring handling. The press loved it: “exceptional ride quality” (Cycling Plus), “a highly versatile bike” (IMB), “the best bike of this genre” (Offroad CC). The bike has 5 separate bottle mounting points to allow for many luggage carrying options.
Silex + models use 650b wheels for an even greater off-road capability. The top of the range 8000 has Fulcrum Rapid wheels, the Shimano GRX810 Di2 groupset and our finest carbon frame technology.
Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.
