MERIDA SCULTURA 4000 V3 (HERITAGE RED GREY)
MERIDA SCULTURA 4000 V3: Unbeatable Carbon Performance
The MERIDA SCULTURA 4000 V3 is built around Shimano's latest, super-smooth 12-speed 105 groupset and features our award-winning SCULTURA CF3 full carbon frame. This is far from an entry-level bike for our newest SCULTURA frame family. Much like its higher-end siblings, it masterfully blends a long list of air-slicing features and race-proven geometry, adapted directly from our REACTO family, with impressive low weight and class-leading riding comfort. The result is an almost unbeatable package for serious road cyclists.
The fifth generation of our lightweight racer marries outstanding handling with improved comfort and an even more aerodynamic chassis. By incorporating selected aero details from our test and award-winning REACTO aero bike, this SCULTURA is truly our most aerodynamic version ever. Yet, it remains steadfastly true to its core focus on lightweight design, agility, and rider comfort; in fact, it elevates these factors to the next level. So much so that Cycling Weekly honored it with the highly sought-after 'Best Value Race Bike of the Year 2024' award. The SCULTURA demonstrates exceptional compliance, providing riders with class-leading riding comfort that helps keep the body fresh for that crucial final sprint or challenging ascent. Available in both CF5 and CF3 carbon frame versions, both sharing geometry with the World Tour-proven REACTO, our classic road bike offers an outstanding combination of comfort with whippet-like acceleration and a class-leading climbing pedigree.
