Summary
The Merida eONE-SIXTY is a versatile and well-rounded enduro e-bike, praised for its balanced handling, plush suspension, and excellent integration of motor and battery. While it excels in comfort and traction, some riders may find its geometry conservative and the front-end traction occasionally lacking. Its performance is often compared favorably to competitors, though it may lack the 'wow factor' of newer models.
Excellent rear suspension with great sensitivity and progression
Balanced and good-natured handling
Ultra versatile and very composed in all terrain
Proven componentry and secure cable management
Comfortable and upright riding position
Geometry is very middle of the road, which may not suit all preferences
Struggled occasionally with front-end traction
Shimano SLX brakes are underpowered
Internal Block System can be frustrating for bike storage
Front end felt a touch high for some tastes and riding styles
It was one of the best e-enduro bikes around at the time.
BikeRadarThe MERIDA eONE-SIXTY is a classic and knows how to play to its strengths.

For 2021, Merida’s eOne-Sixty 9000 comes equipped with Shimano’s EP8 motor and a Fox 38 fork, but is this enough of a performance boost?

The steering is so sharp on the Merida eOne-Sixty 8000. We were seeking out every little ledge and potential jump on the trails.

Merida moves a step closer to making e-bikes the new 'normal' with the release of the new Merida eOne-sixty 10K.
Suspension.
Ride quality.
Geometry is still relatively conservative.
Expensive.

The MERIDA eONE-SIXTY 900E is one of the best eMTB to be released in recent years. It’s managed to secure itself several titles in our group tests and left the competition behind. But the competition hasn’t slept and so we were particularly excited to see whether the almost unchanged MERIDA can still hold its own.NEW: […]
Confidence inspiring in demanding terrain
Easy, intuitive handling
Great spec
No space for a bottle cage in the front triangle
Reverb lever difficult to reach

The Merida eOne-Sixty 900E is a superbly equipped e-bike with great suspension and playful characteristics. It’s a long travel electric mountain bike but it’s not as long and as slack as it could be. We’d like to see a really aggressive version in the future to take full advantage of the build and suspension qualities.

Thanks to the compact Shimano Steps motor and the Boost rear axle, Merida has been able to keep the chainstays super-short (440mm) for a powered bike. . .

A latecomer to our e-bike testing but a winner too. Shimano Steps drive and Plus sized tyres add up to a very compelling design.
