Merida eSpresso CC Hybrid eBike | High-Torque Comfort & All-Terrain Agility
The Merida eSpresso CC is the rugged, adventurous sibling of the classic urban eSpresso line. Swapping standard city hoops for smaller, wider 650b (27.5") wheels wrapped in high-volume, grippy tyres, this machine is built for the ultimate hybrid lifestyle. It transitions seamlessly from the daily urban jungle to weekend escapes along gravel arteries, canal towpaths, and woodland fire roads, offering the perfect blend of crossover capability and absolute low-step convenience.
At the heart of the chassis is the incredibly powerful Shimano STEPS EP6 mid-drive motor, putting out a massive 85Nm of torque to flatten steep trail ascents and handle heavy payloads effortlessly. The system is fueled by a neatly hidden 504Wh internal battery that keeps the silhouette clean and balanced. The eSpresso CC is tuned for a lavish, fatigue-free ride, absorbing bumps with a front suspension fork up front and an integrated suspension seatpost underneath, meaning potholes and rough gravel paths disappear beneath you.
Engineered to be ready for any commute, adventure, or errand straight out of the box, it features a comprehensive, premium utility package. This includes full-length mudguards, a sturdy integrated rear luggage rack, a kickstand, an integrated frame wheel lock, and powerful built-in safety lights. High-volume tyres are equipped with reflective sidewall strips to optimize low-light safety, while heavy-duty Shimano hydraulic disc brakes offer exceptional stopping confidence across wet dirt and slick roads alike. Boasting a robust 150 kg maximum payload rating, it stands as the definitive premium vehicle for daily commuting and weekend exploration.
