Premium Carbon Adventure Gravel Bike

The Merida Silex 9000 2026 is the range-topping model in Merida’s acclaimed adventure gravel line-up, designed for riders who prioritise performance, versatility and exploration. Built around the latest CF2 carbon frame with modern gravel geometry, this bike blends long-distance comfort with nimble, confidence-inspiring off-road handling. Equipped with Shimano’s GRX 1×12 Di2 electronic groupset, Reynolds Black Label carbon wheelset, and premium finishing kit, the Silex 9000 delivers precision, efficiency, and reliability on every ride – whether tackling multi-day bikepacking trips or fast-paced gravel adventures.

The second-generation Silex frame draws inspiration from modern MTB geometry, with a long top tube, short stem and stable yet responsive handling. A revised fork design allows for suspension fork upgrades without altering geometry, while five sets of bottle bosses and full bikepacking mounting points make it ready for any expedition. Carbon models feature CNC-machined aluminium Disc Cooler fins to reduce braking temperatures by up to 35%, ensuring consistent stopping power even on long, fully-loaded descents. Tyre clearance accommodates up to 700x45c (or 42c with mudguards), giving ample traction and comfort across varied terrain.

Key Features:

• CF2 carbon II adventure gravel frame with modern MTB-inspired geometr

• Shimano GRX 825 Di2 1×12 electronic shifting for flawless gear changes

• Reynolds BL ATR Expert CL carbon wheelset with 25mm internal rim width and 42mm depth

• Maxxis Rambler 700x45c tyres with TR and EXO casing for grip and durability

• CNC aluminium Disc Cooler technology for improved braking performance

• Full bikepacking compatibility with five bottle mounts and luggage options

• Suspension fork compatible without altering geometry

• Prologo Scratch M5 AGX saddle with integrated mini tool

The Merida Silex 9000 2026 is the ultimate gravel bike for riders seeking premium build quality, cutting-edge technology, and go-anywhere capability – perfect for the road less travelled.
