Merida Silex 500 Gravel Bike in Moss Grey/River Clay

Season:2027

Brand:Merida

Code:P-S465

The Merida Silex 500 is designed for the road less travelled, embodying the spirit of adventure and camaraderie. It features modern MTB-inspired geometry for nimble, confidence-inspiring off-road handling.

The Silex concept started with a ground-up design, utilising long top and head tubes with a short stem to offer stable, off-road capability. This second-generation frame includes a revised fork design, allowing for the addition of a suspension fork without affecting geometry. The aluminium frame is equipped with five sets of bottle bosses and rack mounting points, providing multiple luggage-carrying options. It also supports internally routed dropper posts and dynamo systems.

The Silex 500 is built with a quality aluminium frame, 45mm Maxxis tyres, and reliable components including a SRAM Apex 1x12-speed wide-range drivetrain and Reynolds Duroc G30 wheels. The upright riding position provides mountain bike-style off-road ability, while the slacker head angle and boosted tyre clearance of up to 700x45mm ensure stability when loaded with luggage. The bike also features sleek Wire Port cable routing for a clean look and reduced cable interference with handlebar bags.

Features:

  • Award-winning aluminium frame with dropped chainstay for 700x45mm clearance
  • Multiple mounting points for cages, bags, and fenders
  • Wire Port internal cable routing for clean aesthetics
  • Carbon fork with cargo mounting points and routing for dynamo hub
  • Relaxed head angle and MTB-style geometry for off-road stability
  • SRAM Apex 1x12-speed wide-range gravel groupset
  • Powerful hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors
