Bicicletta Merida eOne-Forty EQ - 2022

It's the ultimate crossover. The eONE-FORTY EQ can deal with rugged terrain, whether it's potholed city streets or weekend rides in the dirt. The powerful Shimano EP8 drive unit is paired to a sleekly integrated high-capacity 630 Wh battery in our tough all-aluminium frame. Confident handling is assured with our mixed wheel size setup, trail geometry and smooth suspension, so you'll be able to handle any obstacle. Add in the smooth shifting Shimano drivetrain and powerful four-piston brakes and you've got a mix of convenience, control and capability that's hard to beat. The eONE-FORTY might be the little sibling to our multiple award and test winning eONE-SIXTY, but when it comes to providing agile trail handling with superb flow and fun, it plays second fiddle to no-one. Equipped with Shimano’s powerful yet refined EP8 drive unit and with the 630 Wh or 750 Wh battery (model specific) integrated seamlessly into the frame, it’s the perfect partner for all kinds of adventures. The trail-specific, balanced geometry is paired to a mixed 29er/27.5” wheel size setup that delivers flow and fun for riders of all abilities, while a steeper seat angle boosts climbing capability, something ideal for an all-day e-bike mission. The low bottom bracket and lower standover height mean extra confidence while the 140 mm of front wheel and 133 mm of rear wheel travel offer up control, comfort and real rough terrain capability. The eONE-FORTY’s versatility is boosted even further by the EQ models that come fully equipped with mudguards, rack, lights and kickstand so it can tackle the mean streets as well as muddy trails.
