Merida’s eSilex+ 600 gravel bike doesn’t look like a power-assisted bike but does the Mahle motor help or hinder performance and handling?
Super-smooth cruising manners
Upright riding position and relaxed handling to match
Quiet, subtle hub motor assist
Low weight reduces riding effort
Slim 'secret battery' frame
Range extender double-capacity option
Loads of bottle and cargo mounts
Great value for a shop-bought bike
Conventional width crankset
Comprehensive 'ebikemotion' app
Limited control on rougher terrain
Easy to overpower the motor
Restricted 700c tyre space
Dec 2020 · Philipp Schwab
With its versatile frame platform, the MERIDA eSILEX+ 600 with MAHLE hub-drive looks promising – at least on the paper. How did the bike fare in our test?
Very composed
Compact, upright riding position
Good self-damping qualities of the overall system (bike and components)
Highly suitable for everyday use thanks to the many mounts for bottles, mudguards and pannier racks
Visually discreet motor integration
Motor lacks power on steep climbs
Poor control on demanding terrain
