The geometry of the Speeder puts you in an upright and comfortable position which is noticeably different to drop bar road bikes and is a great solution for the rider that wants that road bike style with added comfort.
The 3×8 speed Shimano Acera Drivetrain has the range of gears for you to really test yourself and get fit, commute with speed or just glide up any climb. On top of that it is equipped with awesome Shimano MT200 Hydraulic Disc Brakes which are reliable in all weather conditions, perfect for when you have to commute in the wet. The Merida Speeder 100 Flat Bar Road Bike is flat out fun, combining road bike design with comfort concepts to form a versatile road bike.
