Merida Silex 4000 2026

Carbon Gravel Adventure Bike

The Merida Silex 4000 2026 is a premium carbon gravel bike built for riders who value adventure, versatility, and performance on every ride. Equipped with Shimano’s acclaimed GRX 2×10 gravel-specific groupset and powerful hydraulic disc brakes, it delivers smooth, precise shifting and reliable stopping power across varied terrain. Designed with modern MTB-inspired geometry, the Silex offers a long top tube, short stem, and stable yet nimble handling – perfect for tackling the road less travelled.

Developed from the ground up for gravel exploration, the second-generation CF2 carbon frame combines stability and agility with exceptional comfort. The revised fork design allows for seamless suspension fork upgrades without compromising geometry, while the inboard disc mounts and threaded bottom bracket add strength and easy maintenance. With clearance for tyres up to 700x45c (or 42c with mudguards) and five sets of bottle bosses, the Silex is ready for multi-day bikepacking adventures. CNC-machined aluminium Disc Cooler fins reduce braking temperatures by up to 35%, ensuring consistent performance even when fully loaded.

Rolling on Reynolds G30 wheels with Maxxis Rambler 700x45c tubeless-ready tyres, the Silex 4000 grips confidently on gravel, dirt, and tarmac. Shimano GRX hydraulic brakes with 180mm rotors provide powerful, controlled braking in all weather conditions. High-quality finishing kit, including a Merida carbon seatpost and ergonomic gravel bars, enhances comfort and control for long days in the saddle.

Key Features:

  • CF2 carbon gravel frame with stable, MTB-inspired geometry

  • Shimano GRX 2×10 drivetrain for smooth, precise shifting

  • Hydraulic disc brakes with CNC aluminium Disc Cooler fins

  • Clearance for 700x45c tyres (42c with mudguards)

  • Suspension fork compatibility for enhanced versatility

  • Five bottle mounting points for maximum carrying capacity

  • Reynolds G30 wheels and Maxxis Rambler tubeless-ready tyres

Perfect for riders seeking a dependable and versatile carbon gravel bike, the Merida Silex 4000 2026 is built to handle anything from weekend gravel rides to fully loaded bikepacking adventures.
