Description

The Merida eOne-Forty 400 SE Electric Full Suspension Mountain Bike is a top performer in the Merida eBike range. It has been winning tests, gathering accolades, and hogging the limelight for three generations. The eOne-Forty and eOne-Sixty share the same frame and design features, but have different ride characteristics. The shock stroke on the eOne-Forty is shorter, reducing rear travel to 133mm and creating a steeper seat angle. The shorter 140mm fork extends the reach and delivers a slightly steeper head angle. These slight changes make the eOne-Forty more agile and playful, making it a highly competent climber and perfect for all-day riding.

The mixed wheel size set up is carried over to give the electric full suspension bikes precise steering, fantastic ‘rolling over obstacles’ behavior, and maximum traction. The bike has a 29er front wheel with a 2.5-inch tire combined with a 650B rear wheel equipped with a slightly wider 2.6-inch tire. This combination provides the perfect balance of precision, playfulness, and traction.

All eOne-Forty models use the powerful new Shimano EP8 85NM motor and a bigger 630Wh battery (except for S frame sizes which use 504Wh). The Shimano e-Tube app allows you to tailor power delivery to suit your riding style and even set two profiles, one for shredding and one for cruising.

The bike features an X-Tapered headtube that offers the space for a tapered fork to be fitted. Tapered forks offer superb stiffness and precise steering, giving you confidence-inspiring control. The frame also has smooth weldings, giving it a clean and organic look. The Smart Entry system ensures that cables, housings, and brake hoses are clamped under tension to prevent rattling when riding on rough trails or roads. The inlets are interchangeable to accommodate Di2, hydraulic hoses, brake cable, and gear cable housings.

The bike is also Di2 ready, meaning it is prepared for the installation of Di2 technology with battery mounting in the seat post or within the fork steerer. The Internal Block, first introduced in the 2015 Ninety-Six, is incorporated directly into the frame and prevents the fork crown from hitting the frame in case of a crash or an extreme steering angle. The frame also has added rubber bumpers to avoid any
