Wideopen calls the eOne-Eighty 700 ‘super capable’

After a rocky start when testing , which was easily resolved with more in-depth advice, Wideopen’s Pete Scullion found a ‘trusted sidekick’ in the eOne-Eighty 700.

Built for some of the roughest terrain and equipped with Bosch’s full-powered CX drive unit and large-size battery,the bike impressed with its stable yet nimble handling and its ‘plough through anything’ capabilities.

Pete's final thoughts:
“Although tricky to set up at the start, the Merida eOne-Eighty 700 showed its true colours once we’d got there. For the money, there’s not many ebikes out there that are this capable and it became a trusty sidekick for many missions big and small. It’s a proper set of brakes and a rear tyre away from being an absolute banger.”
