The Merida eSilex+ 600 is designed for riders who want the freedom to explore further without losing the feeling of a traditional gravel bike. Using the MAHLE X30 rear hub motor and a discreet 250Wh integrated battery, it delivers just the right amount of assistance when you need it — on climbs, headwinds, or long-distance rides — while keeping a natural pedalling feel.
The Lite II 6066 triple-butted aluminium frame is both strong and light, offering a comfortable and stable ride. Its modern gravel geometry strikes a balance between control on loose terrain and efficiency on the road. Paired with a Merida Silex CF2 carbon fork, the front end feels smooth and precise, taking the sting out of rough tracks.
The eSilex+ 600 uses SRAM’s Apex Eagle 1x12-speed drivetrain, giving a wide gear range that’s perfect for mixed-terrain adventures. SRAM Apex hydraulic disc brakes provide confident, consistent stopping power in all conditions, while 650B wheels with Maxxis Rambler 47mm tyres add grip and comfort on gravel, forest paths, or city streets.
With mounts for mudguards, racks, and a kickstand, the eSilex+ 600 adapts easily from bikepacking trips to daily commuting. Internal cable routing keeps the frame clean, and the iWoc control button on the top tube allows you to switch power levels or check battery status at a glance. The MAHLE companion app adds extra functionality, from tuning motor response to tracking ride data.
Thanks to its lightweight build and minimal drag from the motor when unassisted, the eSilex+ 600 rides just as well with the power off as it does on. It’s the perfect e-gravel bike for those who love adventure but appreciate a little extra help when the road turns uphill.
