Merida and Giant have mature aluminum frame technology, and both have their own high-end and low-end products. The frameworks of these two companies have their own characteristics, and there is no difference between good and bad.

Merida has HFS framework and TFS framework, and Giant has AluxSL framework and ALUXX framework.

Among them, both HFS frame and AluxSL frame are hydraulic integrated molding technology. The frame is lighter but stronger. Giant is better at lightweight, and Merida is a little more rigid. Suitable for cross-country races.

TFS frame and ALUXX frame are hydroformed, mainly low-end products. The frame is slightly heavier, but the strength is still high, which is suitable for light off-road and urban mixed roads.
