Product Information

Full details

The Merida One-Twenty 300 is designed for riders looking to step into the world of full-suspension mountain biking without compromising on durability or performance. Offering 130mm of travel and a highly versatile frame geometry, it excels on flowing singletrack and technical mountain climbs alike; however, riders should note that while it is highly capable, it is intended as an entry-to-mid-level full-suspension platform, which may require specific tuning for aggressive gravity-focused riding.

FAQs

What is the primary terrain this bike is built for?

It is built for cross-country and trail riding, including flowing singletrack and mountainous terrain.

How does the AGILOMETER sizing work?

It allows you to choose your frame based on how you want the bike to handle (e.g., more stable vs. more agile) rather than strictly by height.

Is the dropper post included?

Yes, a dropper seatpost is included as standard to enhance control on descents.

How often should I service the suspension?

It is recommended to follow the service intervals provided by SR Suntour, typically after every 50-100 hours of riding.

Can I upgrade the components later?

Yes, the frame is compatible with most standard mountain bike component upgrades.

Troubleshooting

Drivetrain skipping gears

Adjust the cable tension using the barrel adjuster on the rear derailleur.

Brakes feeling 'mushy' or soft

The hydraulic system may need to be bled to remove trapped air.

Excessive suspension bob while climbing

Increase the air pressure in the shock or use the lockout lever if equipped.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent value for a full-suspension platform
  • Lower maintenance requirements due to P-FLEX system
  • Precise and long-lasting Shimano CUES drivetrain
  • Agile handling via AGILOMETER geometry
  • Reliable hydraulic disc brakes for safety

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme downhill or high-impact freeriding
  • Stock suspension may require professional setup for optimal performance
  • Entry-level weight compared to premium carbon frames

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup starts with setting the sag on your SR Suntour shock; aim for approximately 25-30% sag for a balanced trail feel. Always verify that your tire pressure is set according to the terrain—lower pressures are better for grip on loose dirt, while higher pressures protect against rim strikes on rocky trails. For maintenance, keep the drivetrain clean and lubricated to preserve the Shimano CUES shifting precision. Regularly check the hydraulic brake lines for potential leaks and ensure your pivot bolts remain torqued to manufacturer specifications. Clean the bike after muddy rides using a soft brush and water; avoid high-pressure washers, which can force water into sensitive bearing seals.
