Adventure-Ready Carbon Gravel Bike

The Merida Silex 7000 is built for riders who want freedom beyond the tarmac. With a lightweight CF carbon frame, Shimano GRX groupset, and adventure geometry, it’s perfect for gravel rides around Hobart, Tasmanian bikepacking trips, and everyday exploration. Whether you’re tackling gravel climbs in the Meehan Range, cruising the Huon Valley backroads, or loading up for multi-day journeys, the Silex 7000 delivers comfort, stability, and performance.

Key Highlights

  • Lightweight CF Carbon Frame & Fork — tuned for vibration damping and stability on long gravel rides.

  • Shimano GRX RX820 12-Speed Groupset — gravel-specific gearing with a wide range for steep climbs and fast descents.

  • Shimano GRX Hydraulic Disc Brakes — confidence-inspiring braking in all weather conditions.

  • Wide Tyre Clearance — fits 700c x 45mm or 650b x 50mm tyres for maximum versatility.

  • Bikepacking Ready — mounts for racks, bags, and extra bottles make it ideal for long-distance touring.

  • Adventure Geometry — upright position reduces fatigue on long rides and enhances control on loose surfaces.
