HIGHLIGHTS

6061 series double butted aluminium frame with a more relaxed geometry. Comes equipped with internal cable routing as well as F, C and K-mounts.

A more compact top tube, paired with a higher front end, provide the MATTS with a more upright riding position, delivery extra riding comfort for the rider as well as a better view of what lies ahead.

Our MATTS offer either 650B or 26" wheels, depending on model and frame size. The top models of the MATTS line-up feature fast rolling 650B wheels, while the middle range offers the smaller models with easy to accelerate 26" wheels. The MATTS 10-V entry model comes with 26" wheels throughout all frame sizes.

All models feature powerful and easy to modulate hydraulic disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes offer great stopping power in any weather, are more or less maintenance-free and are not affected by rough or kinked cables.

The MATTS frames have bosses and fixture points to attach a water bottle cage, rear fenders, a rear rack and a kickstand, making it super versatile if and when it gets used as a commuter or more urban-focused bike.

Aluminium welding is the strong point of our factories. 48 years of production knowledge and experience go into every frame we make. The MATTS is one of the most long-standing bike categories in our history and is proud to carry the name MERIDA.

We feature internal cable routing on all models. Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. Only a clever system for our internal guiding and fixing guarantees reliable and rattle free routing, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt and gives the bike a cleaner look.

RACELITE 61 ALUMINIUM

We use a minimum of 6061 grade aluminium on all our bikes. It’s particularly well suited to being shaped with our hydroforming and technoforming processes, which allow us to vary the wall thickness to create double-butted tubing and complex frame shapes. It’s also an alloy that welds easily, and once it has been carefully heat treated to maximise strength, it means we can create strong and lightweight bicycle frames for you to enjoy.

F-MOUNT

Being able to turn your bike into an all-weather commuter that has mudguards and other fittings can be a real plus, in particular when riding on wet and perhaps muddy roads and tracks on a regular basis. To make fitting easy, some of our bikes are F-MOUNT equipped. These integrated fittings mounts make adding mudguards fast and simple. Please note that some bikes require model-specific mudguards.

K-MOUNT

Integrated mount on the chainstay to fit a Merida kickstand (or any commercial kickstand).

C-MOUNT

Similar to our F-MOUNT, where various fixing points for mudguards are part of the frame offering, the C-MOUNT equipped bikes have the fixing points for a rear rack already integrated, making fitting fast, simple and reliable. The C-MOUNTS are an additional feature that improves the day-to-day versatility by adding loading capacity to your bike, ideal for commuting and shopping trips. Please note that some bikes require model-specific rear racks.
