Merida isn't a brand I had heard of but after a bit of research I rather liked the look of this model. Maybe a bit too expensive for an old codger like me though.

If you're a parent of an under-ten then this is the Merida you'll have experience of...

So I pulled the trigger on this, the last day of the 50% off sale. Tbf the prices are now double what they were yesterday. Now 40% more than what you can buy it for in the UK, rather than 30% cheaper. Lovely bike, 8.5kgs for an alloy bike is great. I have slight doubt over whether I got the correct size, but I guess it is easier to fix a slightly too big bike, than be slightly too small. Perhaps just need to bring the seat down a little more to ease those worries.

Looks like Christmas came early in NZ this year! I remember you've had your eye on this for some time so glad to hear you managed to get in before the price went up. Is it coming back to the UK with you?

I always enjoy coming back this thread for some reason. Could be because of jondxxx's contribution.
