My Birthday has come surprisingly early this yearI had a merida 901 on laybuy at Rays in Preston when I say the Merida s3 come up at a very resonable price. Even 120 bucks cheaper than the other one and a better ride with better gearing.This week I have put down some serious Kms (Approx 250km) and am loving the new MachineI even passed 4 people going up a hill on a group ride and left them far
