MBUK reviewed the new ONE- TWENTY
![](https://d2lljesbicak00.cloudfront.net/merida-v2/media-bg-img//global/2025/bikes/ONE-TWENTY-700-telslv-MY25.jpg?p3)
In the current issue of UK mountain bike magazine powerhouse MBUK (issue 427), the team looked at our latest version of our short travel trail bike, the ONE-TWENTY 700 and gave it the thumbs up.
Senior Tech Editor Tom Marvin loved the ‘upright seat tube angle places your hips right over the cranks, while the lengthy front end ensures there’s ample space to move your weight forward and back’. It also left its positive mark ‘under power’ where it ‘impresses, with the shock remaining still under all but the most spirited efforts’.
Further to that, Tom pointed out the ‘tons of mid-stroke support’ and that ‘suspension works with you, rather than becoming a limiting factor’.
And finally, the handling of the ONE-TWENTY really impressed Tom, who commented that the ‘long reach adds tons of stability at speed, giving you the confidence to press on’.
+ Efficient pedalling and fast tyres make day-long rides a breeze
+ Long-and-low geometry ensures confident handling on technical trails
+ Progressive suspension deals with hits both big and small
