Cool for Kids - Merida J Series Bikes

Adult riders know all too well that having the right equipment is essential to enjoying riding - so why do people accept low quality, heavy and unreliable kit for their kids? The MATTS J24 delivers the same quality ride as an adult Merida mountain bike because it uses the same advanced aluminium frame technology, along with high-quality, big brand equipment such as the smooth shifting Shimano drivetrain and SR Suntour fork with custom tuned spring, plus brakes and gearing that's designed to be easy to use for kids. Suits heights from approx. 129-137 cm tall.

For Heroes of Tomorrow

Our MATTS J range is designed for the heroes of tomorrow, which is why we put all the know-how gained from years of making adult bikes into lightweight, high-quality machines for kids to enjoy. High-quality components chosen specifically for the needs of children are married to our aluminium frames that are created with the same painstaking attention to detail and quality of finish as the rest of our bikes. That’s the only way to guarantee that young riders get the same enjoyment of cycling, safe in the knowledge that their bike will never let them down. Whatever your age, your level of ability or your size, we have the perfect first MERIDA ready for you. See you on the start line!

Is Merida a Good Bike Brand?

In a word, yes! Merida bikes represent great value for money for young and not so young riders. A common comment from customers who purchase a Merida bike is "it feels so great to ride". With expert designers from the beginning of the process, each Merida bike is crafted for an end purpose - a durable bike that is fit for purpose and an awesome ride.
