The Merida Lithos 8000 is engineered to conquer the most demanding technical trails and challenging race tracks with ease. Its lightweight carbon fibre frame, combined with 170 mm of suspension travel front and rear, ensures exceptional durability and control. Designed with race-derived geometry, this e-Mountain Bike offers sublime handling that adapts perfectly to varied terrains, delivering confidence and precision at every turn.
Whether you're pushing your limits on steep climbs or navigating fast descents, the Lithos 8000’s geometry maximizes traction and stability. Features like a longer chainstay and higher stack enhance control during sharp turns and technical sections. The travel-adjustable dropper post and AGILOMETER sizing system allow you to customize fit and handling, ensuring an optimal ride tailored to your style.
Versatility is at the heart of this model. Choose between a lightweight 600 Wh battery for nimble agility or the powerful 800 Wh battery for extended adventures. Customize your ride with a full 29” wheel setup for speed or a mixed 29/27.5” mullet configuration to balance agility and stability. Cable routing options, including the innovative WIRE PORT for a clean look or semi-external headtube ports for quick maintenance access, add practical convenience to an already impressive package.
Can I switch between wheel sizes on the Lithos 8000?
Yes, the bike supports both a full 29” wheel setup for maximum speed and a mixed 29/27.5” mullet configuration for enhanced agility, allowing you to tailor the bike to your riding preferences.
What battery options are available for this model?
You can choose between a lightweight 600 Wh battery for more agile handling or the standard 800 Wh high-capacity battery designed for longer rides.
