Merida E Silex 400 II1

Sometimes you need the freedom to escape

This bike gives you the power to do just that, with smooth, natural hub motor assistance in a sleek, off-road-friendly frame housing a 250 Wh battery. Sometimes all it takes is a little push to open up a new world of exploration. The eSILEX 400 combines a sleek, lightweight frame with versatile gravel tyres on 700c rims with the help of the MAHLE ebikemotion X35+ motor and a 250 Wh battery to expand your riding horizons. An aluminium frame and carbon fork with numerous mountings are ideal for big bike trips or small adventures, while the smooth shifting and powerful braking of the Shimano GRX double crankset are reliable companions, on or off-road. If you are often on the lookout for the off-road alternative when out cycling or simply enjoy exploring the unknown trail, then eSILEX could be the perfect pedal-assist bike for you. The MAHLE system on the rear hub with integrated battery offers support whenever your journey requires electric motor assistance. You can even use an externally mounted MAHLE 208 Wh range extender to increase your range.
