Merida eSpresso City 300SE EQ 504Wh Electric Hybrid Bike Step-Thru 2022

Introducing the Merida eSpresso City 300SE EQ 504Wh Electric Hybrid Bike, a powerhouse of features bundled with exceptional value. This electric bike offers a reliable and affordable option, carefully crafted with top-notch components for a lightweight and enjoyable ride. Plus, it comes with an added bonus of 12 months of free servicing.

The "EQ" in the name signifies that this bike is equipped with an impressive array of options. The Merida eSpresso City includes all the essential features expected from a commuter Hybrid Electric Bike. It features Sunnywheel SW-FA311-60 fenders, thoughtfully designed to shield your tires from water, dirt, and grime. These fenders ensure a dry and clean journey, even when unexpected rain showers appear during your sunny rides. Additionally, the bike incorporates an Abus 5650 LH-3 frame lock cleverly positioned below the seat stays, just behind the battery. This allows you to take breaks along your route, such as grabbing a coffee, without the hassle of finding a dedicated bike rack to secure your bike. With the Abus frame lock, you can lock your rear wheel, preventing any unauthorized use of your electric bike, giving you peace of mind to focus on your cafe pitstop instead of hunting for a bike rack.

Merida's thoughtful design extends to the integration of lights. The eSpresso City 300SE EQ Electric Hybrid Bike streamlines your experience by seamlessly integrating front and rear lights into the frame. You no longer need to remember to charge your lights separately; they automatically turn on with the push of a button and charge alongside your electric bike. Not only do they provide excellent illumination, but they also boast an appealing design. At the front, the bike features the Herrmans H-Black MR4 E light with a reflector and an output of 100/120 lumens. The rear light, the Herrmans H-Cargo, has been skillfully integrated into the Merida MIK carrier, resulting in a clean and polished look. Speaking of the carrier, the Merida MIK carrier provides ample capacity, allowing you to confidently attach pannier bags or a rack-mounted basket, knowing that everything is securely fastened. Additionally, the Continental Contact Plus tires chosen by Merida ensure exceptional puncture resistance and high visibility thanks to the reflective line, enhancing your safety in low-light conditions from all angles.

Now, let's delve into the bike itself. Merida has equipped the eSpresso with trusted Shimano components. The Shimano STePS E5000 drive unit offers four assist modes, coupled with the Shimano STePS E8010 504 Watt-hour battery, granting an impressive range of up to 100-150 km on a single charge. Notably, the Shimano STePS E8010 battery charges to 80% capacity in just 2.5 hours, with a complete charge taking only 5 hours.

Operating this bike is a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly design. Different assistance modes can be effortlessly selected using the display, and the motor automatically provides assistance as soon as you start pedaling. With its pedal assist feature, starting your ride has never been easier. The comfortable design and step-through frame of the eSpresso City 300SE EQ come with 100mm of front suspension and 40mm of seat post suspension, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride. Merida has also equipped the bike with reliable Shimano MT-200 hydraulic disc brakes, complete with a large 180mm rotor on the front, delivering powerful and responsive braking performance whenever you need it.
