The THEOS F70 SH undoubtedly sports an extravagant look. The only question remains: What's lurking behind the Polish design once you hit the trails?

In the automotive and motorcycle world, Japan has always had a reputation for being a breeding ground for excellent engines. Shimano is doing its utmost to live up to this reputation in the e-bike world with the EP8 engine. Steep ramps are no problem for the Shimano motor. Additionally, the Shimano EP8 stands out with a natural riding feeling and a gentle power delivery. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Merida eONE-FORTY 575 (EP6) ⬤ in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (0) ⬤.

Even nasty descents get smoothened by the good Rock Shox chassis. The thick 38mm stanchions on the fork provide an extra dose of steering precision and performance. Whoever wants to ride fast, needs good brakes. The Shimano brakes are equipped with four pistons and 2 millimeter rotors. That way, the premium brakes decelerate more than adequately. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Kellys uses good equipment. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. The low bottom bracket height will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling.
