Merida Bikes eONE-SIXTY 10K

I was lucky enough a few weeks ago to be invited to the Merida eONE-SIXTY launch in the Forest of Dean. I always enjoy catching up with the team, and they usually have something unique up their sleeves; this was no exception. The new eONE-SIXTY platform comes after the much-lauded and award-winning version that has been around for a few...

Merida have long held acclaim for the eONE-SIXTY, one of the first proper e-MTB’s to have sorted geometry and a real enduro feel. It’s won plenty of awards over the years, and rightly so. By today’s standards, it’s perhaps not the longest, lowest or slackest enduro focused e-MTB on the market, but that doesn’t detract from what is an exceedingly...

Out of the box I’m an all rounder, I love Enduro type riding but I don’t live in an area rich in big hills or abound with technical trails. I love big days out and short blasts equally, bikepacking is also a great joy to me when I just need to get away for a bit. Challenging myself to make...

Striking, that is the word that came to mind on first sight of the Merida Big trail 600. A gorgeous forest green set off with bright red forks and decals. The 2021 model is an equally alluring purple affair that also catches the eye. This is the top of the range Big Trail, with 2 lower models for 2021. Beyond...

It's fair to say Merida’s eONE-SIXTY was a massive success for the brand when it was launched. E-bikes were still finding their way in the world and the bike managed to provide riders with a brilliant ride that rode like a normal bike. Fast-forward to the present day and Merida has introduced both a new eONE-SIXTY and an eONE-FORTY. Based...

Having spent time on the 900e model last year, it was clear that Merida had a particularly strong grasp on the ebike market with a fantastic bike. The major issue for myself was that their sizing only went up to large. Roll into 2019 and low and behold we have an XL eONE-SIXTY, and I really wanted to spend some...

Despite my go-to bikes always being long travel 29ers, I find myself endlessly intrigued by drop-bar bikes. Whether it's reminiscing about my early year's mountain biking, or just enjoying something different, my need for a gravel/cross/road-duro bike seems to continue to the point where I find life hard without one in the garage. For mountain bikers, a drop bar bike...

Sharing the style and layout of the bigger 160 and 140 models, the 120 aims to be everything the modern trail rider wants from a bike. Merida claim this new bike is the best balance of 'trail oriented riding on...

Merida has certainly reinvented itself in recent years with enduro bikes and hardtails that show a distinct change in direction from their XC heyday. This eOne Sixty is a further move from their traditional roots and has taken the e-bike market by storm. Very quickly this bike has secured itself as potentially one of the best e-bikes out there. This...
