Some real world feedback would be great.

I tried a friend's M/L Giant TCX. Which is a good fit and similar geometry to The Merida 500 CX 54cm. I'm 6'1".

Anyone care to share there experiences of sizing and ride quality of the Merida?

My wife has an older (2013) merida cyclo cross 4, she loves it.
All the parts are pretty good, and it represents good value for money.
Only change she has made is to fit an inline seatpost.
Would we buy another? Yes.

I've done about 3000km on my 2015MY this year including long distance gravel events.

Lovely frame, if you get the sizing right it doesnt feel stretched out. I changed the stock wheels to lighter tubeless ones and flipped the stem.

I'm 5ft 10" and ride the 54cm. Think you'll need to go bigger
