How does our R&D team know what riders want from their mountain bikes? Easy - because they are riders. You can find them pushing themselves and their designs to the limit everywhere from the epic Mountain of Hell enduro race to burning up brake pads and tearing up tyres during endless bike park laps. It's all so they can design and refine the bikes that they want to ride themselves - we suspect they might just have a bit of fun in the process too... #merida #morebike #meridabikes #bikescience #biketesting #engineering #researchanddevelopment
