Review
The 2015 Big Bear Choppers Merc Rigid 111 Carb is a raw and aggressive machine that embodies the spirit of old-school choppers. It's powered by a potent 1819.1cc (111 cubic inch) engine, delivering 115.8 horsepower and a massive 166.5 Nm of torque. This power is channeled through a 5-speed gearbox, providing direct and visceral acceleration. With a very low seat height of 584mm (23 inches) and a rigid frame, the Merc Rigid offers a truly connected riding experience. The bike's stripped-down design emphasizes its mechanical elements, showcasing the engine and frame. The front suspension utilizes a BBC Merc Springer, contributing to its vintage aesthetic. A single disc brake with a 4-piston caliper provides stopping power. The fuel tank holds 14.66 liters (3.87 US gallons), keeping the profile slim and sleek. This motorcycle is tailored for experienced riders who crave a minimalist and engaging riding experience. It's for those who appreciate the raw feel of a rigid frame and the direct connection to the engine. If you're seeking a no-frills chopper that demands attention and delivers a thrilling ride, the Merc Rigid 111 Carb is a compelling choice.
