Merida Speeder 200 2020 - Hybrid Sports Bike

Marketed as a hybrid but is essentially a flat bar road bike - don't be put off by this though. Riding position is pretty comfortable and allows you to stay upright to focus ahead when commuting. Saddle may take some getting used to but I found it to be fairly ergonomic after a week of use. Just looking at this thing makes me want to get on and ride. Great bike and great service from Tredz!

Treadz, great service, delivered on time and bike had been serviced and setup. Bike itself beautifully engineered. It does have hybrid handlebars, but I think the other reviewers are right, it’s more road bike than I expected. If you have a bony bum you will need padded cycling pants, trust me on that. Other than that it’s incredibly light and easy to ride. Just think I should have got one with some suspension. Roads round Reading are not as smooth as they could be.

Great ride! Love the bike, its quality is top! My best £750 I spent

Whilst I have not ridden it, having seen the bike in person, it really does seem like a high quality machine. I ordered the Large (56cm) per the website's recommendation as I am 5'10'' / 5'11''. The bike felt generally fine to sit on, but the standover height seemed really out of kilter with its size. I had "negative clearance" when standing over it - ie/ the top tube was pushing right up into me and very uncomfortable! For that reason I have unfortunately had to send it back for a refund. Otherwise the bike is beautiful and very well made and equipped.

A little disappointed with the purchase due to the fact that it is advertised as a hybrid but when delivered is more like a road bike ( and labelled as such on the frame of the bike ) than a hybrid. bike quality etc all ok as was service but description is misleading.
