Merida gravel bikes are designed for riders who want the speed of a drop-bar bike with the confidence to explore beyond smooth tarmac. Built for rough lanes, tracks and long mixed-surface routes, they balance efficiency, comfort and control for big days out.
Why choose a Merida gravel bike?
Merida’s gravel bikes combine stable handling and generous tyre clearance to keep you moving comfortably when the surface changes. Compared to a road-focused setup, you’ll gain traction and confidence on broken roads and loose terrain, while still keeping a fast feel on tarmac. If most of your riding stays on the road, explore Merida Road Bikes. For more gravel options across all brands, browse our main Gravel Road Bikes category.
