    Official Merida eOne-Sixty thread

    Most everyone complains about them... So far, Ive got away with bleeding mine to restore function... Do not lift your bike using the saddle. Lubricate the stem/wiper seal before you use it if its sat for a few days.. Perform a bleed on it...Reset the pressure - if that doesnt work, it will...

    Dreaded E010 Code

    Have a read through here..it's not all bearings talk. There is discussion focused on error code origins and speculation about the torque sensor (towards the end IIRC...) https://www.emtbforums.com/community/threads/steps-e8000-motor-service.16542/#post-223451

    Should I buy a spare BT-E8010 now?

    Just dont store it in cold conditions. Being external, its so easy to bring it inside to store it when not in use... And dont leave it in a state of full charge for longer periods.... If memory serves, @65% is the sweet spot, but anything from 65-85% is good. And charge/discharge cycle it once...

    2019 e160 900e - headset bearings

    Hi, I am needing to replace the headset bearings in my 2019 e160 900E, top and bottom.. Can anyone provide a part number at all..? Looks like I can simply replace the bearings without faffing about removing and pressing in new seats etc, which is what Id like to try and find... They arent...

    Rim replacment question

    Ive have a notion that the DT Swiss take a particular type of spoke..or is it the nut that is specific to their rim ? I believe its the nut...( see here- I have DT SWiss 27.5 for information Straightening a wheel.... - EMTB Forums) I wouldnt assume you can use the spokes on that basis. DT...

    E160 900E gearing change

    I've been using a Deckas a;;oy ring like the one pictured in this thread.... It didnt last long enough for me to bother again. Namely because, whilst cheap, it started to give e issues whilst out and about. If Id been quicker to realise, I might have avoided it but it basically started...

    Sorry - this is in English ( Australian! )... Perhaps it is of interest....?

    Merida eONE-SIXTY 9000 vs YT Decoy Pro Race

    I had similar thoughts. The YT is a great looking, and well priced machine. Its hard to deny... I think you have to be honest with yourself... I dont have serious downhill on my doorstep. Am I really going to make use of it ? Probably not.. If you dont care about suspension adjustability, are...

    E160-9000 Shimano Motor Cover

    Cant comment on 2020 bikes...or anything other than my own really... Logic dictates that being made of plastic, they will tend to be a little flexi, and they wont all end up the same from the molding process either... if it appeared to be totally sealed, you can bet it will get damp in there...

    E160 900E gearing change

    This chain has done less than 200 miles - This is the amount of lateral flex it has....if it were on any of my motorcycles, I would have binned it ages ago...!!!

    E160 900E gearing change

    Ive run the chain on my e160 to the top ring on the cassette and I cant believe its healthy..it grinds like a coffee machine because the alignment is so far offset from the front ring. I even think it will simply throw the chain off...! What do I know ? I dont think what you have done can be...

    new aluminium e140 and e160 models

    I am enjoying my new Merida...even if it is last years model. :rolleyes: I enjoy that I got such a bargain. And in no small part, I love my external battery.... It's so simple to unmount, take indoors, store in a temp controlled environment, and charge it in a controlled and best practice...
