Merida E Spresso 500 Eq Iv1

Sometimes life can seem terribly demanding, which is why the eSPRESSO 500 EQ is designed to take you where you want to go with minimal effort. The refined Shimano E6100 motor unit is combined with a long-life 630 Wh battery to deliver smooth, time-saving pedal assistance. Whether it's riding across town to see friends, to work or to bring the groceries home, it's equipped to keep you protected and safe with a long list of standard accessories, while a suspension fork offers extra comfort and control. The smooth Shimano 10-speed transmission offers a wide range of gears for all types of terrain, while powerful hydraulic disc brakes require little maintenance. The eSPRESSO range is the perfect partner for urban riding because of its comfort and practicality. Standard mudguards, lights, lock, luggage rack and kickstand mean you are ready to go from the moment you leave the shop. Choose from frames with internally mounted batteries in 750 Wh, 630 Wh or 504 Wh capacities, or a more economical 504 Wh semi-integrated design. All use a range of powerful Shimano STEPS drivetrains, with the option of the EP8 sports motor on some models. Frame options with simplified access on all models facilitate assembly and disassembly. Shock-absorbing forks offer better control, while powerful hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable and controllable braking power in all weather conditions. The 700c wheels are equipped with 50 mm wide tyres for greater grip and comfort, and reflective strips on the sides improve rider safety in low-light conditions. Internally routed cables provide an elegant appearance, while the system's maximum weight of 150 kg means plenty of carrying capacity.
