The Merida Reacto 8000 brings top-tier aero performance into a more accessible package without losing the key characteristics that define the Reacto range. Built around the CF3 carbon frame, it delivers the same aerodynamic efficiency and stiffness as the flagship models, with only a small weight difference.
Aerodynamic shaping across the frame reduces drag at speed, helping you maintain momentum on fast rides and group efforts. At the same time, tyre clearance up to 32mm gives you the option to run wider tyres for improved comfort and grip on mixed road surfaces.
The S-Flex carbon seatpost plays a key role in comfort, allowing controlled flex to absorb road vibration and reduce fatigue over longer distances. This makes the Reacto just as capable on endurance rides as it is in race scenarios.
Shimano Ultegra Di2 electronic shifting offers quick, precise gear changes with minimal effort, backed up by a reliable 12-speed setup that covers everything from steep climbs to fast flats. Hydraulic disc brakes from the same groupset provide consistent stopping power in all conditions.
The Reynolds AR 60 carbon wheelset adds aerodynamic advantage with deep-section rims, helping you hold speed efficiently. Paired with Continental Grand Prix 5000S tubeless-ready tyres, the setup offers low rolling resistance, strong grip and added puncture protection.
Up front, the Vision Metron 5D integrated cockpit improves airflow while enhancing stiffness and steering precision, giving the bike a clean, race-focused finish.
Overall, the Reacto 8000 is a well-rounded aero road bike that balances speed, comfort and control, making it a strong choice for racing, fast club rides and long days pushing the pace.
