In 2016, MERIDA pedelec fans can look forward to the new Merida eSPRESSO family – powered by STEPS from drivetrain specialist Shimano.
Thanks to the impressive 250 watt-strong electric drive system, these completely redesigned on-road pedelecs are perfectly balanced and operate over distances of up to 60, 85 or 120 kilometres per charge, depending on the assist level selected.
New frames feature a hydroformed down tube with a semi-integrated battery compartment as well as partially internal cables on the bottom.
