eOne Forty - Trail
Merida
The eOne-Forty Lite is designed for riders who don’t need extra suspension travel or who are looking to combine everyday use during the week with outstanding trail performance at the weekend.
Equipped with a large 750 Wh removable battery and the ability to extend it to over 1100 Wh range (using a range extender which is available separately) the eOne-Forty offers a full support motor and a lighter, more versatile specification.
Sharing the same platform as the new eOne-Sixty, suspension travel on the eOne-Forty Lite has increased to 150 mm on the front and 143 mm at the rear. Fitted with 29" wheels at both ends, it can easily be converted to a mullet set up using the flip chip. Rear wheel travel increases to 151 mm.
The removable internal battery has a capacity of 750 Wh which can be expanded by using a 360 Wh range extender that's available separately.
The aluminium frame offers great value for money whilst maintaining stiffness and durability.
Lightweight kit and fast-rolling tyres help introduce both pace and fun, wherever you're riding.
The suspension platform is derived from the FAST kinematics first seen on the regular One-Sixty and One-Forty, it’s been fine tuned to meet the needs of eMTBs. It offers size specific kinematics and progression, matching the frame size not only to the rider’s height but also to their riding style.
The new geometry retains the highly acclaimed riding characteristics of the previous ebike range but it’s been heavily influenced by the award-winning One-Forty Sixty. It’s progressive for high performance and it’s been tweaked to better suit e-bikes and shorter reaches and higher front ends have been introduced to improve agility.
