TOP-END PERFORMANCE

The eOne-Sixty Lite is a long-range, trail-ready eMTB built around a durable aluminium frame and a removable 750 Wh battery. An optional 360 Wh range extender is available for riders who want to go even further. With 170 mm front and 174 mm rear travel and a mullet wheel setup across all sizes, it delivers confident, agile handling on steep and technical terrain.

We’ve developed two new bikes on a completely new platform, building on the innovation and testing of the award-winning One-Sixty range. Both share advanced suspension, sizing and geometry, but with different priorities: the carbon, lightweight, full-power eOne-Sixty CF with a 600 Wh integrated battery, and the all-aluminium, maximum-range, full-power eOne-Sixty Lite with a 750 Wh removable battery.

NEW GEOMETRY

IMPROVED HANDLING

Our new geometry builds on the success of the original eOne-Sixty and the award-winning One-Sixty, combining strong climbing power with excellent trail performance. Designed specifically for eBikes, it features a shorter reach and a higher front end for improved agility on the trail.

Compared to the previous eOne-Sixty, the stack has been reduced, creating a more aggressive riding position with a lower front end. As with the regular One-Sixty, we believe it’s better to have the option to raise the stack with spacers or a higher rise bar than to be stuck with a high head tube and a bar you can’t lower. The geometry of the new carbon eOne-Sixty CF and the aluminium Lite is identical; it’s been modernised but retains the highly acclaimed handling characteristics of the previous eOne-Sixty.

FEATURES & INNOVATIONS

SMART FEATURES & UPGRADES

Flip Chip

A Flip Chip is built into the rocker, letting you switch rear wheel sizes without changing the bike’s geometry.
Using a 27.5" rear wheel gives the bike more lively handling and adds 14 mm of extra travel, while a 29" wheel offers a more stable ride.

SRAM UDH

The SRAM UDH hanger is easy to source, boosts shifting performance, and is fully compatible with the latest SRAM drivetrains.

P-Flex

The eOne-Sixty CF and LITE models use our P-Flex flexstay technology, reducing both maintenance and weight. As proven on the regular One-Sixty, One-Forty and One-Twenty, removing the rear pivot doesn’t compromise frame strength or long-term durability.

POWERED BY SHIMANO STEPS

CLASS-LEADING PERFORMANCE

Shimano STePS is a leading e-bike power system, delivering smooth, reliable pedal-assist with the flexibility to pair different batteries and controls for the ultimate drivetrain setup.

At the top of the range, the lightweight EP801 motor is built for performance-oriented mountain biking. With 85 Nm of torque, 600 W of peak power, and a finely tuned setup, it perfectly complements the eOne-Sixty frame, giving you confidence when the terrain gets tough.

 

A 360 Wh range extender is available separately, extending your ride when you need it most.

360 Wh

RANGE EXTENDER

Enhance your ride with the optional 360 Wh range extender, which increases total battery capacity to 960 Wh on the eOne-Sixty CF
or an impressive 1,110 Wh on the eOne-Sixty Lite.

All batteries, including the range extender, are supplied by Trendpower. Shimano provides full warranty support for the batteries, giving you added confidence and convenience if anything should go wrong.

The 360 Wh range extender weighs just 2.9 kg and attaches securely to the two dedicated mounting adaptors on the downtube. Standard water bottle mounts are also a feature, although only one accessory can be fitted at a time. You can choose either the range extender or a water bottle.

AGILOMETER SIZING

CHOOSE SIZE BASED ON RIDING STYLE

A 30-230 mm travel adjustable dropper post (excluding the eOne-Sixty 675), combined with a low stand-over height allows riders to select a bike size based on their preferences rather than their height.

Short, Mid and Long sizing reflects the proven Agilometer sizing system, accommodating all needs from long-reach stability to shorter-reach
manoeuvrability or more upright riding comfort.  

FRAME PROTECTION & MUDGUARDS

BUILT FOR THE TRAIL

All models are equipped with mounting points for a long rear mudguard, and each bike is supplied with a compact mudguard that protects the main pivot area.

The frame features extensive protection to help keep your bike looking its best. This includes protective foil, a rubber chainstay guard and Energy Guard battery cover, all positioned to minimise noise and reduce the impact of trail debris.

FAQ

For riders who want maximum range without giving up the power of the EP801 drive unit, choosing the  eOne-Sixty Lite with a removable 750 Wh battery is the ideal option. The larger battery delivers significantly more time on the trail, letting you climb higher, ride for longer and enjoy more of the off piste stuff. If you ever want to push your rides further, the 360 Wh range extender attaches cleanly to the frame and increases total capacity with only a 2.9 kg addition. A great option for long days, big climbs and fitting in a few more laps.

A removable battery gives you more flexibility in how you use and charge your bike. You can take the battery out to charge it indoors, or remove it for transport and storage. A larger 750 Wh removable battery means you can enjoy much greater range for longer days out on the trail.

No, the bikes do not come with the range extender, but it will be available separately through your local Merida dealer. This helps us keep the overall price of the bikes down, but gives an option for those that need more than the standard battery capacity.

Yes, Shimano will process any warranty issues with the Trendpower battery and Shimano components as one, rather than the customer having to deal with multiple brands.

The bikes come as standard with a tapered 1.125-1.5" steerer forks, but it is possible to use forks with the new 1.8" taper standard by changing the lower frame cup and crown race. This part and all others are from ACROS, giving broad interchangeability of components and easy availability of spare parts.

The 1.8" lower cup can be found with ACROS part number: 51.02.620S-120
The 1.8" crown race can be found with ACROS part number: 51.02.029-120-AM
