Merida BIG.NINE XT HP3 2022
Description
BIG.NINE XT HP 3
SEVERAL FRAME OPTIONS
In addition to the full-carbon version of the BIG.NINE, Merida also offers its hardtails with LITE and TFS aluminium frames.
While the LITE frame has a similarly race-ready geometry to the carbon model, the TFS frame offers a more relaxed geometry with a shorter top tube and a taller head tube. The result is a more upright riding position and a better view ahead.
The TFS frames have internal cable routing, smooth-welded joints, a tapered head tube, a brake mount on the chainstay and eyelets for mudguards, a rack and a kickstand.
DROPPER POST READY
All models from the BIG.NINE LITE frame level up have a 30.9 mm seatpost.
The reinforced junction between the top tube and seat tube increases stiffness and allows a dropper post to be fitted, which adds safety on steep descents.
FROM EXPERIENCE
Our classic hardtails are the backbone of our range and show the outstanding experience and know-how we have gained in developing and building bikes over more than 47 years.
The BIG.NINE and BIG.SEVEN are prime examples of the symbiosis of modern frame technology, attention to detail and craftsmanship "Made in Taiwan".
SMART ENTRY
Cables, housings and brake hoses are clamped under tension so they don't rattle on rough ground.
All cable entry points are fully interchangeable and work with Di2 as well as hydraulic hoses and brake and gear cables.
MODERN HARDTAIL GEOMETRY
Our carbon and lightweight aluminium models come with 422 mm reach, a steep 73.5° seat angle, a slack 70° head angle and an 80 mm stem (BIG.NINE, size M): next-generation XC geometry.
Aggressive agility meets good straight-line stability, just right for today's demanding courses.
