Merida eOne-Sixty SL Review
Downhill agility and singletrack fun with power for the climbs.
Innovative Design
The eOne-Sixty SL boasts a carbon frame with capable geometry and 160mm of suspension travel. Weights as low at 19.5Kg are achieved by pairing a lightweight Bosch Performance Line SX motor and a 400Wh battery, delivering a bike that handles like a conventional mountain bike on the descents.
Lightweight Bosch SX Power
At its core, the Performance Line SX motor delivers intuitive, tuneable pedal assistance, offering 55Nm of torque with peak power at 600W. Paired with an integrated non removable 400Wh battery, it delivers support when needed while keeping the overall weight low. A range extender of 250Wh is also available for longer adventures.
Advanced Suspension
With 160mm front and rear suspension, the eOne-Sixty SL adapts perfectly to rough trails. The suspension design was inspired by Merida’s award-winning One-Sixty platform and offers a capable, balanced ride feel to help you ride with confidence on challenging terrain.
Customisable Wheel Setup
The bike features 29" wheels front and rear as standard, but with a flip chip in the seat stay that gives you the flexibility to switch to a 27.5" rear wheel mullet setup. This gives you the opportunity to prioritise speed or agility without compromising geometry.
Geometry and Stability
Designed for enduro, the eOne-Sixty SL features 64° head tube and 78.5° seat tube angles which offer excellent stability and climbing efficiency. The Agilometer sizing system prioritises reach and riding style over seat tube length, Each frame size features dropper post lengths to suit every rider.
Built to Last
The bike’s enduro-tough carbon frame includes key features like integrated frame protection, advanced cable routing, an optional rear fender, onboard trail tool, and storage mounts for practical durability on the roughest trails. It’s designed for long-lasting performance with a lifetime frame warranty.
