With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

Cancelled / Refunded Orders Prior to Despatch

Merida Big Nine 10K – Elite Carbon XC Hardtail for Racers & Trail Riders

The 2026 Merida Big Nine 10K is the flagship cross-country hardtail, engineered for riders who demand maximum speed, precision, and performance. Built around a super-light CF5 carbon frame with clearance for 29" wheels and 2.4" tyres, it delivers explosive acceleration, agile handling, and confident control on race courses or rugged trail terrain.

Equipped with a 100 mm-travel Fox 32 SC Factory air fork with remote lockout, the Big Nine 10K balances efficient pedalling and smooth suspension — perfect for technical climbs and fast descents. The wireless 12-speed Shimano XTR Di2 drivetrain provides lightning-fast, precise, and low-maintenance gear changes. Lightweight carbon wheels, tubeless-ready tyres, and a one-piece carbon cockpit combine to give elite-level performance, responsive handling, and efficient power transfer.

Key Features

  • CF5 carbon frame — ultra-lightweight, racing-ready backbone with room for 29″ × 2.4″ wheels/tyres

  • Progressive XC geometry (AGILOMETER sizing) — for stable handling, efficient climbs, and confident control on descents

  • Fox 32 SC Factory 100 mm fork with remote lockout — smooth suspension when needed, efficient pedalling when locked out

  • Shimano XTR Di2 wireless 12-speed drivetrain — ultra-sharp, precise shifting with minimal maintenance

  • Reynolds Blacklabel 309 carbon wheelset + tubeless-ready setup — lightweight, stiff, fast-rolling wheels with modern tyre performance

  • FSA NS SIC one-piece carbon cockpit & carbon seatpost — reduces weight and improves stiffness for responsive handling

  • High-quality finishing kit — XTR brakes, premium tyres, and a race-ready build for competitive XC or demanding trails

Summary
