Overview of components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the Suntour XCR Air model. The travel on this model is 140mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is Rock Shox Deluxe Select+, with a travel distance of 143mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In short, if you want smooth rides, get a full-suspension bicycle.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the ONE-FORTY 400 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The ONE-FORTY 400 has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Dropper post
Merida ONE-FORTY 400 includes a dropper post. Needless to say, a dropper post will come in handy on climbs and descends. You’ll fall in love with it at first sight!
