Gunn-Rita Dahle Flesjå and José Hermida - Experience, passion and history

It's not that often that we have legends of the sport in our midst, so Gunn-Rita Dahle Flesjå and José Hermida visiting our headquarters in Magstadt, Germany was a real treat.

The two former World Champions, World Cup winners and Olympians have moved away from the race tape but continued their relationship with the Merida brand to share their wealth of experience and their passion, still representing the brand at various races and events.

As well as planning the upcoming season with our marketing team and discussing the latest products and development projects with our R&D crew, they had the chance to revisit some of their old bikes which took them to Championships and World Cups as they're now are on display in our R&D department.
