ONE-SIXTY 7000 tested by FactoryJackson

The FactoryJackson test crew had a closer look at our ONE-SIXTY 7000 enduro machine and gave it their approval.


THEIR NEW ZEALAND BASED TESTER COMMENTED:

‘Riding the Merida is a hell of a lot of fun, its poppy, tight, snappy, agile and uber-competent. My current testing ground of Nelson, NZ, provides some of the best test conditions available. A variety of steep, loose, off camber, super- rough, pedally and pumpy – it has it all.’

…and...

‘I will honestly say it’s one of the best back ends I’ve ridden in a long time!’


VERDICT:
‘The Merida One-Sixty is a really well considered bike, and a departure from their lacklustre bikes from the past. It’s bang on point when it comes to handling, and the combo of a very good suspension platform and the seemingly frictionless Rockshox Trunion mount shock offer an amazing suspension action. At £4500, it represents decent value for money too…’
