TESTED: 2021 Merida eOne-Sixty 9000

- čas přidán 4. 08. 2024
- The Merida eOne-Sixty is one of the most popular eMTBs in the world - and with good reason. Merida hit the ground with a top quality motor, great parts spec and an aggressive stance when the eOne-Sixty was launched for 2017.
After a frame overhaul for 2020, the 2021 Merida eOne-Sixty range is supported by Shimano's new EP8 system, bringing more power, more range, less weight and greater control to the popular long-travel eMTB.
The eOne-Sixty 9000 on test has a full Shimano Deore XT M8100 drive train, along with eMTB specific DT Swiss wheels and a Fox 38 Performance Elite fork - it's one of the most thoroughly specced eMTBs we have tested at AMB. While this model sells for $10999, eOne-Sixty models start at $5999 and run to $13999 for the top dog with Fox Factory goodness, DT Swiss carbon wheels and Shimano XTR! The 9000 model on test has all the same functionality and it really sets the benchmark for modern trail/enduro eMTBs.

Nice review with plenty of information. I’ve just ordered mine (same spec) here in the UK, can’t wait to get out on it now!
Hope you enjoy it!
Wicked vid mush!
Love the content but have to ask how would the bike handle an enduro style single track or perhaps jumps that are over 3 metres? Love to see a comparison on this?
Ryan sent the e160 on plenty of bigger jumps. Pick up our mag (or the online edition) to see the photos.
Not a big fan of the 27.5 rear wheel. Feels like it doesn't like big edges like gutters. Pinched the standard pushy tyre. A DD case is a necessity, I just bought a Schwalbe Eddy Current for my 2020 E160 8000.
what helmet are you wearing?
Ни че не понял но думаю велик что надо по деревне гонять)))
Mahal banget guys yak😭
14k forget it I’m buying a KTM for a extra 1500! Better brakes, better suspension, more power more torgue, get a 140km to a fill, and doesn’t have a stupid 25kph limit and headlights bigger.
The eOne-Sixty 9000 for $10999 is probably where the best value is. Plus you can ride it in way more places than a motorbike. But to each their own!
@@Australianmountainbike I ride mine to the beach and park right at the pool. My trailbike rarely gets used these days.
