MERIDA SCULTURA TEAM, the victorious bicycle used by Team Bahrain Victorious, joins the REACTO as the company’s top range and is designed to offer exceptional performance both uphill and on the flat but with an eye to the comfort of the cyclist where it represents the pinnacle of technology and of engineering in the world Merida.

Frame and Design

The SCULPTURE TEAM frame is made of CF5 carbon which guarantees low weight (approximately 822g for size M) and optimal rigidity to guarantee top performance. The geometry is identical to that of the REACTO, which has proven to be highly effective in the race, and ensures easy handling and reactivity. Now in its fifth generation, the SCULPTURE TEAM inherits the aerodynamic design of the award-winning REACTO with low air resistance, improving overall performance while remaining the lightest and most comfortable from MERIDA.

Components

Available from size 3XS to L (the choice can easily be entrusted to the precise size help app on the MERIDA website), the SCULPTURE TEAM is equipped with the Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 group with power meter and 12 speeds which offers precise gear changes and reliable as well as all the pedaling performance metrics. Shimano Dura-Ace hydraulic disc brakes ensure stable, all-weather braking power. The MERIDA TEAM SL 1P integrated cockpit and Vision Metron 45 SL carbon wheels, paired with 28mm Continental 5000S TR tires, complete a package of high-quality components and maximum smoothness on the road.

Comfort and Performance

Despite its racing soul, the SCULPTURE TEAM does not sacrifice comfort. The MERIDA S-FLEX carbon seatpost helps absorb road vibrations, reducing fatigue during long rides. The combination of lightness, rigidity and aerodynamics makes this bike not only comfortable, but also extremely reactive and fast both uphill and on the flat.

Innovative Technologies

There are several innovative technologies that MERIDA has integrated into the SCULPTURE TEAM. The internal passage system perfects the aesthetics as well as significantly reducing air resistance. Furthermore, Disc Cooler technology, with aluminum cooling fins positioned under the brake calipers, helps dissipate heat while maintaining constant braking performance even on the fastest and most demanding descents.

Conclusion

The MERIDA SCULTURA TEAM is a bicycle designed for the most demanding cyclists, who dream of PRO bikes and the maximum in terms of performance but without giving up the right ride comfort. Its presence in professional competitions, moreover, testifies to the reliability and performance of this model.
