The Speeder 60 is the entry point to Merida's Speeder range: a lightweight, comfortable flat-bar hybrid for weekend leisure rides and the daily commute. It combines a quality hydroformed aluminium frame with a simple Shimano 1x8 drivetrain and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes for a fun, quick ride with very little fuss.
Merida uses triple-butted 6066 aluminium, hydroformed to tune the frame for a comfortable, responsive ride, paired with a lightweight aluminium fork. The upright position, flat bar and hydraulic disc brakes are well suited to riding in town, giving you good control and a clear view of the traffic around you. Road.cc rated the Speeder an "excellent fast flat-bar road bike".
Shimano's Essa 1x8 drivetrain keeps things easy, with a single 40T chainring and an 11-45T cassette giving a wide range for hills and no front mech to think about. The frame takes tyres up to 35mm (32mm with mudguards) and has mounts for a rack, mudguards and a kickstand, so it's easy to set up for year-round commuting.
