Regular price £825.00
Unit price per
The new Merida Big Nine 80 builds on the Big Nine 60 and adds the new Shimano Deore 12-speed groupset creating a capable 29er with sophisticated TFS frame, Rock Shox Judy fork and complete Shimano drivetrain, hubs and powerful hydraulic brakes.
This model is also a UK exclusive, one of the best things about Merida is that despite being one of the biggest bike manufacturers on the planet they're agile and listen to market feedback.
Model Technologies
SMOOTH WELDING
Sometimes called ‘double pass welding’, a second pass over the weld gives a clean organic look to the frame. At first glance, you will be convinced it is carbon.
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. The bike looks neat, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt.
X-TAPER HEADTUBE
Merida's X-Tapered headtube offers the space for a tapered fork to be fitted. Tapered forks offer superb stiffness and precise and deliver confidence-inspiring steering.
DOWN TUBE EXIT
Ensures that internally routed cables and wires can’t move freely and remain easily accessible for servicing.
TFS - TECHNO FORMING SYSTEM
Technoforming is a mechanical forming process, shaping the tubes by using negative moulds, at times combined with an internal metalcore.
RACELITE 61 ALUMINIUM
Merida uses a minimum of 6061 aluminium. The payback is that it’s possible to make lighter and more advanced frames buy using additional heat treatment and double-butted wall thicknesses to produce light and stiff frames.

Stock Availability
Unlike our competitors, many of which don't actually have a significant proportion of the products they list online available in stock in their own warehouses, these stores depend on suppliers being able to provide products quickly on demand which in these trying times is a bit of a gamble.
For this reason we now only sell products we actually have in stock and know we can provide rather than just 'SIM' feeding product availability from suppliers.
Click & Collect
If you are local to our area (Carlisle), you can collect your order from our store at your convenience. Collection is free of charge no matter how big or small the order value and you'll be able to collect your order from our store usually within 2hrs on weekdays.
Please note that at this time Click & Collect is not available if you're using an accelerated checkout such as Apple Pay, Google Pay or PayPal. Sorry.

Secure Delivery
For security purposes, we regrettably can no longer ship to forwarding centres, PO Boxes and locker boxes. For some items such as bikes and electric scooters, these can only be delivered to the billing address, no change of address or in-transit redirection is permitted for any consignments.
Easy Returns
If an item doesn't fit, or isn't quite what you expected then simply fill out the enclosed returns form and return your unwanted items to us within 28 days for a full refund, we'll accept orders returned to us after this period with refunds made via gift vouchers for use against future orders. Unfortunately, we're unable to cover the costs of returning items to us.
For further information please see our Refund Policy for further details.
Bike Delivery
Unfortunately we only have a contract to ship large consignments to MAINLAND UK addresses, if you live in the Highlands or on an offshore Isle please get in touch prior to purchasing as we can arrange for an ad hoc collection with Parcelforce for a fee - see details at the bottom of this section for details.
We aim to have all the bikes we stock pre-built and available for immediate purchase online and for in-store collection, once you have ordered a bike from us one of our fully trained Cytech mechanics will package your bike into one of our custom built boxes.
These extra-large boxes allow us to ship most bikes almost fully assembled but before we do so our mechanics will carry out a PDI (pre-delivery inspection) on the bike to ensure that before it's prepared for shipping everything is set up correctly, e.g. brakes, gear indexing etc.
Upon receiving your bike, you will simply need to take your new bike out of the box, turn and tighten the handlebars and fit one of the pedal (if your bike comes with pedals). In some instances, such as for road bikes, you may also need to attach the handlebars as they're too wide to simply be rotated so they'll be secured to the side of the frame with zip ties.
If you live outside of MAINLAND UK or in any of the postcodes listed below we can most likely still ship a bike to you but please get in touch as the surcharges we're billed by the courier vary from location to location.
Postcodes: AB, FK, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE, IM, BT and GU, JE.
