We give you a walkaround of the brand new Merida Silex. Despite not being a gravel race bike Matej Mohoric won the 2023 Gravel World Championships riding this bike.
Whatβs changed from the previous model? In short, the head angle is now 1.5 degrees slacker, tyre clearance has increased from 40mm to 45mm, cables now run internally and there are more mounting points.
The frame, available in carbon fibre and aluminium versions, has had a visual refresh, too, while Merida has specced 180mm rotors on all models for serious braking power.
Six models make up the range for now. Prices start from Β£1,275 for the Shimano Sora-equipped Merida Silex 200, and rise to Β£8,750 for the SRAM Red eTap AXS mullet Merida Silex 10k.
