Merida SILEX 300 Gravel Bike Glossy Black (Matt Black)

Merida SILEX 300 Gravel Bike Glossy Black (Matt Black)

Lightweight aluminium gravel bike with full carbon fork and single chainring setup. The SILEX 300 is ready to tackle your next cycling adventure, regardless of whether it is on smooth tarmac roads or more demanding gravel tracks.

Based on our super versatile and comfortable aluminium frame and full carbon fork combo, our SILEX 300 loves adventure. The simple yet hugely effective single chainring setup provides one of the cleanest looks in our SILEX range while still offering a huge gear range for steeper inclines a well as fast road sections. The SILEX geometry provides an extremely comfortable riding position and outstanding stability, even on rougher off-road detours.

"There's a certain beauty in just riding without watching the time, heading wherever you feel the urge. For those rides, the test and award-winning SILEX makes total sense

our most comfortable and versatile road bike ever. With its modern MTB inspired geometry, long top and head tubes and short stem, it offers nimble, confidence-inspiring handling. While often seen on extended gravel and rough road outings, as well as bikepacking trips, the SILEX also found a strong following in comfort-orientated road riding connoisseurs as well as commuters and city traffic weavers. The more rugged 650b wheeled alternative to the 700c SILEX has managed to obtain multiple test wins as well as comfort awards, and is coming back in the form of the fully loaded and wirelessly shifted SILEX+ LIMITED. The 'classic' 700c SILEX also impressed the press with the 400 securing a test win in Cycling Plus, being certified as having a 'huge fun factor', 'superb riding position' and 'brilliant off-road handling'.
