Merida Etmo Makes Full Power, Trail-Ready Bosch eMTB More Attainable in Alloy
Merida's all-new aluminum Etmo brings high-end Bosch Performance CX motor and battery options to a lower-priced alloy eMTB family. The Etmo offers 140mm or 160mm trail-ready travel and all-mountain geometry comparable to Merida's premium carbon models. Four build levels are available, including commuter-ready builds, all equipped with Bosch's upgraded Performance CX motor. Entry pricing starts around £3,650 / 4,380€, making full-power Bosch-equipped eMTBs more accessible than many top-spec carbon models. The aluminum frame draws inspiration from Merida's e-One-Eighty and aims to combine smart specifications with affordability for broader rider budgets.
"This all-new aluminum Merida Etmo mixes up some of the best bits of Merida's latest high-end Bosch eMTBs with versatile 140mm or 160mm trail-ready travel, everyday versatility, and a dash of newfound affordability. Much like Merida's premium carbon eMTBs, this new Etmo features all-mountain-ready geometry and solid builds, just at lower prices. And to not skimp where it really matters on modern ebikes, all 4 build levels of the new eMTB are available with Bosch's top-tier Performance CX motor"
"Over the last two seasons, Merida revamped everything in their performance eMTB line-up from light-support e-One-Sixty SL carbon trail ebikes, carbon e-One-Forty & e-One-Sixty all-rounders, up to a gravity-ready alloy e-One-Eighty freeride ebikes. But unless your budget was over €5-6k, they didn't really have a feasible option for you, even at their most entry-level. But now, with a new aluminum frame inspired by that latest e180 and smart specs, Merida is back with an all-new entry-level aluminum eMTB family that gives you premium Bosch motor and battery options, travel options, and fully equipped commuter builds at more affordable price points."
