Merida 2025 eSPRESSO CC 500EQ
Rugged enough for the countryside, tough enough for the city. The eSPRESSO CC 500 EQ pairs the powerful Shimano EP6 drive unit with a 630 Wh battery that sits in our ENERGY CRADLE frame design. It combines the convenience of an external battery with the looks of an internal battery in order to keep the handling safe and secure. We've also fitted tough 650b wheels with comfortable and grippy high-volume tyres that help take the sting out the bumps, along with a suspension fork and seatpost.
The eSPRESSO CC range is the rugged sibling of the regular eSPRESSO CITY, with wider and grippier high-volume tyres on 650b wheels. While it's happy working hard in the urban jungle thanks to standard-fit mudguards, lights, lock, rack and kickstand, it's also capable of taking trips along forest trails and gravel tracks for fun. Featuring the super-strong low step-through ENERGY CRADLE frame design that gives the bike the necessary rigidity, the eSPRESSO CC models are equipped with a 750, 630 or 504 Wh fully-integrated battery. All come with a refined but powerful Shimano EP6 STEPS pedal-assist motor, delivering 85 Nm of torque. Smooth and comfortable progress is assured with suspension forks on all models, while powerful hydraulic disc brakes allow effortless and controlled stopping. All have a high system weight of 150 kg which means plenty of capacity for rider and luggage.
