The lowest-priced carbon version of our test and award-winning Scultura Endurance bike. Carbon frame combined with Shimano 105 mechanical groupset and hydraulic disc brakes for a cost-effective package. Positioned between Silex and Scultura in the Merida road range the Scultura Endurance is aimed at tarmac adventure riding with geometry designed for riders who want to enjoy long hours in the saddle while being comfortable and relaxed on the bike. The modern comfort-orientated geometry endows the Scultura Endurance with a longer head tube creating a more upright and comfort-orientated seating position. The slacker head angle and slightly longer wheelbase give the bike more stability at speed. To increase frame stiffness and steering precision the Scultura Endurance uses 12mm bolt through axles and a full carbon tapered fork. There’s plenty of tyre clearance up to 35c or 32c if you fit mudguards larger volume tyres can be run at lower pressures to provide more comfort even on pothole littered lanes. Merida have used plenty of neat touches such as routing shifting and brake cables through the headset to declutter the cockpit. Even the seat clamp is hidden and the rear seat stay bridge can be removed if it isn’t used to mount mudguards. All Scultura Endurance except are 200 have powerful hydraulic disc brakes. Calipers are flat mounted for a neat flush fit on CNC’d aluminium Disc Cooler fins which reduce operating temperatures by up to 35%.
