Overview

The Merida ETMO 700 is a mid-range build of the ETMO: Bosch Performance Line CX (120 Nm) with 600 Wh, RockShox Psylo Silver RC eMTB fork, RockShox Deluxe Select shock, SRAM S100 Eagle Half-Mount and SRAM DB4 stealth brakes.

The ETMO is Merida's most price-focused Bosch-powered e-MTB, with an aluminium frame derived from the eONE-EIGHTY, mixed 29/27.5-inch wheels and a lifetime frame warranty for Category 4 (all-mountain/enduro) use. The 800 and 700 run 160 mm of travel at both ends; the 500 and 400 builds use a 140 mm fork and a shorter-travel rear end.

Drive units are the Bosch Performance Line CX (120 Nm) on the 800, 700 and PRO builds and the Performance Line PX (90 Nm) on the 500 and 400, with 540, 600 or 800 Wh internal batteries. Merida also offers EQ versions with fenders, lights, kickstand and rear rack.
