Merida EOne-Eighty FR 800

his one goes up to 11. We've made our hard-hitting eONE-EIGHTY even more capable by speccing a coil-sprung rear shock and kit that prioritises suspension and stopping performance over the parts that break or wear out. That means the flawless performance of a RockShox Zeb Ultimate fork and Vivid Coil Ultimate rear shock kicking out 180 mm of travel countered by the relentless power of SRAM's Maven Base disc brakes. Add in a huge 800 Wh battery powering the torquey Bosch CX drive unit and you've just made the uplift pointless.
Calling all heavy hitters, bike park senders and big mountain brawlers, this one’s for you. The new eONE-EIGHTY has landed, and it’s ready to ride the biggest lines and burliest tracks - and you can say goodbye to waiting in the uplift queue because it can rip and repeat all day long thanks to a big 800 Wh battery and Bosch CX power.It’s our longest travel e-bike ever, with 180 mm of suspension at either end on a robust aluminium frame with a new suspension platform that builds on our award-winning FAST kinematic from the eONE-SIXTY and sends it to new heights. Add in coil shock compatibility, mixed-wheel size only setup, plus a whole host of other features and getting rowdy is where the eONE-EIGHTY starts, not finishes. Up or down, it’s ready to rock.It’s also our first e-MTB to use the Bosch Performance Line CX drive unit, which offers powerful assistance and silent performance with up to 100 Nm on tap. There’s a serious amount of range on offer too, thanks to the new 800 or 600 Wh battery - plus the option of a 250 Wh range extender. You can easily remove the battery for off-bike charging or replacement on a really big ride, plus we’ve also got a new cover that protects from dirt, impacts and moisture - and it holds itself in place with the magic of Fidlock magnets.It’s rated for Category 5 riding too, so you can get stuck into as many bike park laps or downhill tracks as you like without voiding the 5-year warranty.
