Merida Silex
2027 · 700c wheels · 6 sizes
Carbon gravel bike (SILEX CF2 II frame with a MERIDA SILEX II CF2 carbon fork) with a relaxed head angle and MTB-inspired geometry. Every current carbon Silex and Silex RS build shares this frame and the same geometry table. Merida quotes a 415 mm fork length, a 69.5 degree head angle, a 74.5 degree seat angle, 430 mm chainstays and a 75 mm bottom bracket drop in every size. Merida does not publish fork offset or trail. Merida does not publish fork offset or trail for this bike. The offset used here (45 to 49 mm) is worked out from Merida's own stack, reach, head angle, bottom bracket drop, chainstay and wheelbase, which pins it to within a millimetre or two, but it is not a published figure.
