ElektroRad awards the eONE-SIXTY 6000 with ‘very good’

In their recent (04/2025) issue, the German e-bike magazine ElektroRad tested ten eMTBs including our eONE-SIXTY 6000.

The test team were impressed by our Shimano EP801-equipped e-enduro bike in multiple ways, and it was awarded a test score of 1.3 or ‘Sehr gut’, which translates as ‘very good’.

During the testing period, the test team were impressed by various frame details and features, such as the air intake at the head tube, the lighting, the multitool located under the saddle, and the integrated rear wheel mudguard. The choice of suspension components and tyres also left a positive impression.

As well as the features and specifications, the way the eONE-SIXTY 6000 performs on the trail contributed to its impressive test score of 1.3. In particular, when pointed downhill, our e-enduro impressed with its agility on twisty trails, as well as with its balanced suspension, which provides control and confidence. The tyres provide excellent grip on downhill sections, and in combination with the well-controlled and powerful EP801 power unit and the active suspension configuration, they deliver tons of traction when going uphill.

Their final verdict:
"The MERIDA eONE-SIXTY 6000 is a really fun bike. A well-executed and versatile enduro bike which excels in descents and also pedals well uphill.”
