The Merida Scultura 8000 is designed for riders who want a fast, efficient, and versatile road bike. At its core is the CF3 carbon frame – engineered with race-focused geometry for sharp handling, yet tuned with compliance to keep you comfortable on long rides. Internal cable routing adds a clean look, while disc coolers on the flat-mount brakes improve heat management on big descents.
Up front, the matching CF3 carbon fork balances stiffness with shock absorption, and clearance for 30c tyres means you can run wider rubber for extra comfort and grip. Reynolds AR 46 carbon wheels bring lightweight responsiveness and aero efficiency, paired with Continental’s Grand Prix 5000S tubeless-ready tyres for proven rolling speed and grip.
Shifting is handled by Shimano’s Ultegra Di2 12-speed groupset, delivering precise, electronic control with a wide 11-30T cassette and 52/36T chainset for both climbs and sprints. Ultegra hydraulic disc brakes with Shimano’s CL800 rotors give confident stopping power in all conditions.
A full carbon Merida Team SL one-piece cockpit keeps weight down and stiffness up, matched with a carbon seatpost and Prologo Scratch M5 saddle to round out the premium build. The geometry is shared with Merida’s REACTO race bike, proven at World Tour level with stage wins at the Vuelta and Tour. Yet, this Scultura remains true to its all-rounder ethos – aerodynamic refinements, climbing agility, and compliance that keeps you fresh when the road ramps up.
Whether you’re racing, tackling alpine climbs, or enjoying fast-paced weekend rides, the Merida Scultura 8000 gives you a balanced mix of performance, efficiency, and rider-focused comfort.
