I don't have any specific experience but seeing you can't get a LOT of parts at the moment maybe they just don't have one in the country. A lot of what I needed recently I had to get shipped from Europe to Australia..... Just no stock here anywhere.Hi,
Anyone else had their aluminum eone-sixty frame cracked and replaced by Merida ?
After opening service request, How much time does it takes to get a response from Merida service ?
How much time to approve a replacement ?
Local dealer claims Merida is stalling.

No but I do know the frames insertion depth isn't much.Anyone with a 2022 E160 fitted a OneUp 210mm dropper post?
Anyone who has experienced ep8 stopped assisting while pedaling on plat ground in eco mode? Speed was under 20 km/h. Pedals were getting heavier and no error code appeared. So I stopped pedaling a second and when I started pedaling again ep8 started assisting too, exceeding the speed just before. This happened on flat ground and in eco mode mostly. It just stops like I'm going downhill without pedal torque.
Did you find a solution? How is it working for you? I’m also thinking on buying Hope Fortus, rear wheel, but it’s 6 bolt only. ThanksHas anyone upgraded the wheels on the 2021 e160? How did you fit the magnet to 6 bolt rotor hubs? My e160 has centre lock hubs with the magnet as part of the rotor (I think).
Is there a magnet that would fit onto the 6 bolt hubs (like hope fortus)? I've seem magnets for the levo, would they work? I'm not sure about the spacing.
Thanks.

Changed my wheelset over to Hope Fortus 30 a month or so ago. Switched to Shimano icetech 6 bolt rotors and SRAM AXS at same time and just put a shimano e8000 disc rotor magnet on it (think I got it off Commencal site as was quite difficult to find). Fits fine with no adjustment and no issues since done. I did originally try the bosch rotor magnet that worked but wasn't quite positioned properly and very close to the frame. Also felt some inconsistent power delivery which I suspect down to poor positioning. The Shimano magnet works perfectly. On 2021 e160 8000.Did you find a solution? How is it working for you?

Don't sit it on a flammable surface. Concrete or tiles. Just in case.Yes, doesn't seem to be an issue. Just be sensible and don't cover it, unplug when not in use...
What model charger do you have? It looks like it has a standard figure 8 input cable? Mine is hardwired so can't be extended which is a pain as the power socket is just a little bit far from my bike rack, so the charger hangs in the air..
Answer to my own qu: No, the Merida E160 Al Limited has an integrated headset which the bearings just slot into, no cups that can be replaced unlike the original E160. A slack R kit might work, but I haven't investigated further as I am over forking so have already raised the front significantly.Does anyone know if you can get an angleset for the aluminium E160 Limited?
I ran one on my old E160 800, which worked great, but the frame cracked on that bike in the same place as other people have experienced (top tube weld to seat tube).
Just don't know if the later aluminium versions accept an angleset - it looks like people with carbon bikes are having troubles getting them?
That's genius! All the engineers at merida and they didn't think of that. I'm doing that to mine!FYI, Charging indicator mod:
I replaced the black plastic cap in the downtube with a white silicon 8mm cap.
Now the LED that’s on the battery itself illuminates the cap.
While charging, number of blinks = number of bars.

That's awesome man! Have ordered some of them!FYI, Charging indicator mod:
I replaced the black plastic cap in the downtube with a transparent silicon 8mm cap.
Now the LED that’s on the battery itself illuminates the cap.
