Merida Matts J 20 - Dark Strawberry 2026

£500.00
  • Lightweight double butted aluminium frame

  • Rigid fork helps keep weight down

  • Grippy, oversize 20” tyres give extra comfort and control

  • Trigger operated 7-speed gears

  • Hydraulic disc brakes with easy to grip levers

  • Kid specific finishing kit

Fat 2.4" tyres provide plenty of comfort and grip, 7 speeds with trigger shifters make changing gear simple and Tektro hydraulic disc brakes take care of the stopping. Approx 9.5kg.

It’s all about lightweight for kids; all our bikes have rigid forks as cheap suspension forks tend to work poorly and weigh a lot. We use 1x drivetrains with trigger shifters to keep shifting simple, further reducing the overall weight. All components are as light and child-focused as possible. The flip-flop stem and spacers allow for growth, extending the life of the bike. Suits heights from approx. 109-129 cm.
