Merida Dirt 500 Dirt Jump Bike
The Merida Dirt 500 is built for riders who live for airtime, progression, and all-day sessions at the pump track. Designed specifically for dirt jumping, street riding, and pump track performance, this tough and agile hardtail combines proven durability with a fun, responsive ride feel.
At the heart of the Dirt 500 is a robust 6061 aluminium frame engineered to withstand hard landings and repeated impacts while maintaining precise handling. The dirt-jump-specific geometry delivers confidence in the air and stability when landing tricks, making it an ideal choice for both aspiring riders and experienced jump enthusiasts.
A Manitou Circus Expert air suspension fork with 100mm of travel helps absorb heavy impacts and smooth out rough transitions, while the single-speed drivetrain keeps maintenance simple and reliability high. Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful and consistent stopping performance, giving riders complete control on jumps, pump tracks, and urban features.
The 26-inch wheelset with Alex MD30 rims and Kenda K-Rad tyres delivers the perfect combination of strength, grip, and responsiveness. Whether you're boosting jumps, carving berms, learning tricks, or riding street lines, the Merida Dirt 500 is built to handle the abuse and keep performing session after session.
