Merida Big Seven 40 (Disc) is a hardtail mountain bike focused on the leisure and family rider with more comfortable ride positions yet all the benefits of the 27.5 inch wheel size. Larger wheels are able to hit obstacles at a lesser angle than smaller wheel sizes, which means reduced resistance and loss of momentum as the bike rolls over the obstacle and continues along the trail. There is also improved traction as the big wheels allow for more tyre tread in contact with the ground.

Aimed at the off road user who is just starting out, the Merida Big Seven 40 features triple butted Racelite 6061 alloy in the frames which makes them more ridgid while still being light. Overall the Merida Big Seven 40 designed to be agile and handle a mix of climbing and descending over moderately technical terrain and comes with a suspension lockout on the shock for that extra level of control.
