If only the best is good enough and you value aerodynamic efficiency, low weight, race-proven geometry, and first-class comfort, then the test winner Merida SCULTURA could be the perfect choice for you. Whether you’re racking up training miles or preparing for your next race, the CF5 carbon frame isn’t just super-light—it also benefits greatly from the new REACTO design. It was developed with great care to be the most comfortable pure road bike in Merida’s history.
The fifth generation of this lightweight racer combines excellent handling with improved comfort and an even more aerodynamic frame. Thanks to selected aerodynamic details from the award-winning Merida REACTO Aero bicycle, the SCULTURA is the most aerodynamic version ever. Yet it remains true to its focus on lightness, agility, and riding comfort; in fact, it takes these factors to a new level, earning it the coveted “Best Value Race Bike of the Year 2024” award from Cycling Weekly.
The SCULTURA is characterized by outstanding compliance and offers the rider first-class riding comfort, which helps keep the body fresh for the final sprint or the climb. Available in the CF5 and CF3 carbon frame versions, both of which share the geometry of the WorldTour-proven REACTO, Merida’s classic road bike combines outstanding comfort with lightning-fast acceleration and first-class climbing capabilities.
