Don't know much about Merida, apart that they are a big Taiwanese firm, but everything else looks to be in order. You have carbon forks for comfort and Shimano Sora as the basis for the groupset which is good entry level gear.

The big decision is whether to go Triple or the 50/34 on the above bike. If it's very hilly you might want the former.
