2025 Merida Silex 4000 Gravel Bike - Gunmetal Grey
The SILEX turns any ride into an adventure, whether you’re on a multi-day gravel bikepacking mission or just taking the fun route to work. The latest version builds on the test-winning pedigree of the original SILEX but adds even more off-road capability, thanks to a slacker head angle and boosted tyre clearance of up to 700x45 mm or even 42 mm with fenders. Merida combined that confident mountain bike-inspired handling with all-surface versatility so that it is utterly stable when loaded up with luggage but still fast and fun when you put the hammer down.
The SILEX 4000 is the entry to carbon fibre frame option in the lineup, pairing Merida’s lightweight CF2 II frame and fork with high-value equipment such as the utterly durable 10-speed Shimano GRX drivetrain with a double chainset for climb-anything ability. Tough, tubeless-ready Maxxis Rambler tyres plus Merida’s mountain bike-inspired geometry provide a predictable and planted connection to the ground while quality finishing kit delivers performance without needing any fanfare.
