Industry type：Transportation

Product model number：One-Twenty 8000/6000/800/XT Edition/600/500/400

MERIDA INDUSTRY CO., Ltd.

The all-new ONE-TWENTY is the best all-rounder. This short travel trail bike (front 130 mm/rear 120 mm) is equally at home on long and demanding uphills as it is on energy-sapping straights as well as technical downhills and singletracks. The updated geometry and frame design gives the bike a very playful character, but it is still precise and lightning fast. Due to its low weight and fantastic power delivery, it is a hugely capable long distance bike. Equipped with a new oversized chain stay design, which increases the rear end stiffness of the frame dramatically and improves durability as well. The CF4 level carbon frame is around 400g lighter and impresses through increased stiffness and durability. The head tube angle has been slackened from 69 to 67.3 degrees, improving the descending skills of the ONE-TWENTY even further. The chain stays are 10 mm shorter resulting in a more playful bike which still offers the perfect balance between being a great climber and an agile trail bike

Over 50 years ago, Taiwan-made bicycles were often seen as low quality, with U.S. shops even refusing to service them. During a business trip to the U.S., MERIDA’s founder, Mr. Ike Tseng, witnessed this firsthand. Determined to restore confidence in Taiwan's manufacturing, he founded MERIDA in 1972 with a focus on engineering precision and quality craftsmanship. Initially an OEM producer, MERIDA launched its own brand in 1988 and gained success in Europe. From 2000, it began sponsoring elite athletes, forming its MTB team in 2003 and later entering WorldTour road racing. That same year, MERIDA and Giant jointly initiated the A-Team alliance to strengthen Taiwan’s bicycle supply chain. MERIDA embraced e-bikes early, producing its first in 1995. In 2024, e-bikes accounted for 42% of Taiwan’s exports. That year, MERIDA was also named Taiwan’s 13th Best Global Brand. Today, MERIDA continues to drive innovation, blending German-Taiwan R&D to deliver bikes trusted by riders worldwide.
