The Merida eSpresso CC 400 SE EQ Electric Hybrid Bike builds on the incredible platform of the eSpresso City by adding rugged off-road ability for conquering all terrains. Benefitting from Merida's unique working partnership with Shimano, the latest generation of the eSpresso CC 400 SE features Merida's new 'Energy Cradle' frame for a semi-integrated battery in the down tube for increased frame stiffness while offering the battery additional protection. Similarly, Merida has focused heavily on redesigning the eSpresso CC to be their most comfortable touring model yet! It benefits from a greater maximum tyre width thanks to the choice of an uprated Suntour NVX30 fork as well as widened seat and chainstays of the rear triangle. As always, the Merida eSpresso CC benefits from Shimano's class-leading E6100 touring motor which offers torque on tap for smooth, refined performance on all terrains!

Merida has designed the eSpresso CC models to tame the great outdoors all while offering riders a luxurious ride in the process. So it should come as no surprise that Merida has upgraded the latest generation of the eSpresso CC with Suntour's NVX30 fork which offers a handy 80mm of travel and better compression. Equally, a Merida Expert suspension seatpost has been installed to offer increased sensitivity and comfort for small ruts, bumps and general surface feedback! On top of this, the eSpresso CC features double-wall 27.5" rims wrapped in Maxxis Crossmark II tyres for grip in all weather conditions, whether it's a dry and dusty gravel path or a muddy trail you'll have grip at all times. While the durable wide-range Shimano Deore drivetrain offers smooth and efficient shifting.

When it comes to frame design, it's hard to pass up the eSpresso CC's ultra-low step-through for riders which offers riders a lower centre of gravity, for increased stability and thus rider confidence. Moreover, it makes mounting and dismounting an absolute breeze! Naturally, it'd be hard to highlight the Merida eSpresso CC's comfort and versatility without mentioning the incredible Shimano E6100 mid-drive motor which is the real point of difference for the eSpresso range. It offers a huge 60Nm of torque on tap through 5 different assistance modes so you don't have to worry about steep hills or tired legs. While the high capacity 504Wh battery ensures you have an average off-road range between 70 and 100km (expect up to 150 on roads!) making the eSpresso CC perfect for weekend adventure dates or your daily commute!

The Merida eSpresso CC wouldn't be a true tourer without the extensive list of options that come as standard. To begin with, Sunnywheel SW-FA311-65A fenders are installed to prevent water, dirt, and grime from being flicked or splashed onto you, ensuring you remain you dry and clean throughout your journey. The all-new Merida Massload carrier comes installed as standard, offering an incredible 27kg payload making it perfect for a weekend trip away. While a rear light has been neatly integrated so you're always visible, regardless of the lighting conditions! Next, you'll find an Abus Frame Lock located below your seat so you can comfortably lock your eSpresso's rear wheel so you can comfortably leave your bike outside a cafe or pub when you're out on the road! Up front, a Herrmans H-Black MR4 front light has been installed to light the path ahead and increase your visibility to other road users. Finally, Merida has equipped eSpresso CC with hydraulic brakes as standard for assured performance and control regardless of weather or terrain.

The Merida eSpresso CC 400 EQ is a rugged tourer designed to help you explore the great outdoors and truly enjoy the world around you. With the fantastic gear Merida have installed as standard and the additional equipment offered, it's perfect for exploring past the city limits and daily commutes. You'll struggle to find a model that can meet the eSpresso CC's specs and equipment straight out of the box!
