Slovenia: New Bicycle: Merida AM 3000-D aka Black Mamba

Since my previous bike, Merida CROSSWAY TFS 500-D, named Snow White, was stolen, I was looking for a new one and today I bought it. I stayed loyal to Merida brand, just this time, I bought a full suspension bike, Merida AM 3000-D. I named her Black Mamba. I bought her for 730€ and with a little bit of investment, she will be like new.
