Merida Sizing - 

• X-Short: 145cm - 165cm
• Short: 155cm - 175cm
• Mid: 165cm - 185cm
• Long: 175cm - 195cm
• X-Long: 185cm+

Merida's latest range of mountain bikes makes use of a slightly new approach to sizing. Merida encourage riders to consider their riding style when selecting a frame size. 

For example the Mid size frame is suitable for riders of heights between 165-185cm. This means a rider of height 175cm could select a Short frame if the preference is agility, Mid for a balanced ride or Long for stability.
