The Merida Crossway 40 is a fantastic hybrid bike, perfect for adept riders looking to explore national parks, fire trails or just their city! It offers incredible ride quality, creature comforts and efficiency all in a fantastic value package. The double-butted alloy frame of the Crossway makes it both lightweight and durable, and has the added benefit of soaking up rough surfaces to make riding a breeze. If this wasn’t enough, Merida have added a Suntour Front Suspension Fork to increase comfort, meaning you won’t have to worry about ruts and potholes causing you serious discomfort or jarring your arms and shoulders! Equally, the Merida Branded Seat Post on the Crossway means you can ride in comfort, without having to worry about wearing lycra or bike-specific clothing – not only does this mean less chance of chafing, it also prevents you from spending unnecessary amounts on expensive cycling clothing! Speaking of additional expense, the Merida Crossway 40 comes with everything you need for turning the mundane into an adventure – just hop on and ride away. It really is that simple!
With the Merida Crossway 40, you’ll find it’s a great upgrade over the Merida Crossway 20-D thanks to the inclusion of the road-oriented Altus drivetrain offering significant efficiency gains. Indeed, coming with a 27 Drivetrain means riders now have a better mid-range sprocket selection offering efficiency gains when cruising and climbing. Moreover, the Crossway 40 features Shimano Hydraulic Disc Brakes which offer more power and greater modulation in comparison to the TEKTRO Brakes offered on the Crossway 20-D. Overall, you can expect to come to a stop in a significantly shorter distance when you really need it, offering you the confidence and assurance that you’re always in control! In the meantime, you’re still rolling on super wide 40c tyres which increase comfort, while maintaining efficiency. You’ll find that they soak up rough surfaces and simultaneously increase your rolling efficiency for a smooth and supple ride! Meanwhile, the Crossway 40 has been finished with a combination of Merida branded components to ensure reliability and longevity. The Merida Crossway 40 really is the perfect bike for avid cyclists wanting a bike that’s as comfortable exploring the city, as it is rolling down firetrails and through forests.With the integrated mounts for mudguards, racks and kickstand, you’ll be able to carry any and everything you need for a picnic or weekend adventure!
