Merida ESpresso 300EQ SE Hybrid Electric Bike 2021, 47cm Frame – Silk Green

Merida eSpresso 300EQ SE Hybrid Electric Bike 2021, 47cm Frame – Silk Green

New for 2021, Merida return with their eSpresso 300EQ SE hybrid Electric Bike, finished in a lovely Silk Green.

Presented in a Crossbar semi-integrated frame & battery variant, the eSpresso 300EQ SE is perhaps something for the men, or those who prefer a more direct riding stance as opposed to the comfort geometry you’d find on the City Step Through model.

Coming back every year that little bit more refined. If you’re after a reliable transport companion that aspires confidence through build quality, with features to make that commute or rural adventure a joy,  a means to replace that expensive, polluting car you’re been barely justifying for years. Merida eSpresso is definately the place to start.

Designed for all walks of life, coping just as well on a beaten rural track as it does on the paved city streets. Merida have included a broad Shimano Altus M2000 gearing system and responsive Shimano MT-200 hydraulic disc brakes to aspire confidence whatever the conditions, and with front/rear mudguards and sturdy rear rack, you’re all set for one hell of an adventure.

Shimano Steps E5000 Powered

The heart of the eSpresso City 300 lies with it’s Shimano Steps E5000 crank driven motor. Offering 40Nm torque with easilty switchable power assist modes, the E5000 is Shimano’s lightest motor to date at only 2.5KG, and with virtually silent, seamless power delivery, it would seem this motor is perfectly suited. Ready for all weather conditions, so you’re never left high & dry.

Powering the motor, you’ll find a 418Wh Shimano E8014 battery, neatly situated on the seat tube for a balanced centre of gravity. Capable of up to 40 miles from a full charge.

Prolite 66 Triple Butted Aluminum

Our proven high-end aluminium (6066) is extremely light and durable. Using triple butted wall thicknesses and hydroforming technology, we can tune the aluminium tubes to give the best possible stiffness to weight ratio.

HFS – Hydro Forming System

Tubes are inserted into negative moulds and a hot emulsion of water and oil is forced through at pressure, enabling them to be formed into complex shapes.

Di2 Ready

Bikes/frames with the symbol ‘Di2 Ready’ are prepared for the installation of Di2 technology with battery mounting in the seat post or within the fork steerer.

Internal Cable Routing

Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. The bike looks neat, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt.

Casting Motor Bracket

Sophisticated shape only possible due to casting technology, creating an integrated appearance as well as an extremely strong connection between the E-bike motor and frame for improved performance and reliability.
