Description

Merida SILEX 4000 2024 Gravel (Matt Bronze Metal, S)

This carbon-framed bike is ready for any adventure, with a durable Shimano GRX drivetrain that delivers ability to climb any slope, plus our proven mountain bike-inspired handling for off-road confidence.

Ready for adventures of any size. The SILEX 4000 is the entry into our carbon fiber frame range, pairing our lightweight frame and fork with high-value components such as the absolutely durable Shimano GRX 10-speed drivetrain, with a double crankset for downshifting ability any slope. Rugged Maxxis Rambler tubeless-ready tires and our mountain bike-inspired geometry provide predictable grip and a low-to-the-ground stance on every surface.

The SILEX turns any trip into an adventure, whether you're on a multi-day bikepacking trip or just taking the fun route to work. The latest version builds on the winning pedigree of the original SILEX but adds even more off-road capability, thanks to a slacker steering angle and increased tire clearance of up to 700x45mm or even 42mm when mudguards are installed. With carbon and aluminum frame options, there's a SILEX to suit every budget, but they all share the multiple mounting points, fender mounts and other features that lend themselves so well to this do-it-all bike. We've added our sleek WIRE PORT cable routing for a cleaner, more modern design, and the carbon fiber fork used on all models now features more load mounts and internal dynamo-ready routing. With the ability to use 1x or 2x drivetrains, you can choose your drivetrain based on the task at hand or your personal preferences, opening up a world of opportunities for you and your SILEX.
