With updated geometry for 2022, the Merida Scultura 9000 is the same class-leading road bike you know and love, but now with the most aerodynamic frame ever seen on a Scultura. Comfortable enough for challenging training miles, yet fast and lightweight with razor-sharp handling for race day, the CF5 carbon frame now boasts the same race-proven geometry as the Reacto range. With the vibration-dampening carbon frame and fork, the Black Label Reynolds rims, and the slick Continental GP 5000 TR tyres, the Scultura 9000 has you covered for any eventuality.
The Scultura 9000 features the all-new Shimano Ultegra Di2 drivetrain. As a result, you get Shimano's widest mid-range cassette to date, with the 52-36T crankset and new 11-30T 12-speed cassette meaning you'll always be able to find the optimal gear regardless of the gradient. As the latest iteration of the Shimano Di2 range, the Ultegra Di2 groupset provides the smoothest and quickest shifting action of any wireless groupset. Alongside the new Ultegra Di2 drivetrain, you receive the new Ultegra Hydraulic Disc Brakes that offer increased modulation and power for enhanced control and confidence on all gradients, terrains and weather conditions. Merida has equipped the Scultura 9000 with Reynolds Black Label Aero carbon rims, offering the aerodynamic benefit of 65mm walls, without a significant weight penalty. The improved tyre clearance of the latest generation Scultura Fork means 700 x 28c Continental GP5000 tyres have been provided for an efficient, smooth-rolling ride. Finally, thanks to Merida's nifty decision to use the Ultegra Di2 drivetrain alongside their proprietary One-Piece Cockpit not only saves precious grams but also has the added bonus of an aesthetically pleasing clean cockpit design.
The Merida Scultura 9000 is a class-leading model optimised for climbing, descending, cornering and everything in between. This is all thanks to its class-leading compliance and aerodynamic efficiency which make climbing a breeze while retaining razor-sharp handling. The lightweight Merida Team SL one-piece cockpit only serves to optimise vibration dampening without compromising handling and the Reynolds Black Label Aero wheels give you an aerodynamic edge to make climbing and descending effortless. Finally, the equipped Shimano Ultegra Hydraulic brakes will fill you with confidence to keep pushing your boundaries regardless of the weather. If you're looking for small gains to get the edge on your rivals, the Scultura 9000 offers you the performance gains needed for big results.
New Scultura Frame Family
Newly updated for 2022, the new Scultura frame family incorporates aero details from the award-winning Reacto aero bike making this generation of Scultura the most aerodynamic ever. Now sharing its geometry with the Reacto, the Scultura takes its proven agility, comfort and lightweight design to the next level.
Precise Steering
All Scultura models feature a full carbon fork with a tapered steerer to give precise confidence-inspiring steering. Alloy and CF2 carbon models feature a regular 1 1/8" to 1 1/2" taper. The high-end CF4 frame has a slimmed-down front profile and uses a 1 1/8" to 1 1/4" taper.
Disc Cooling Technology
A forged aluminium part under the rear disc brake calliper draws heat away through CNC-milled cooling fins giving 35% less heat build-up and faster temperature reduction for stable braking performance. Now you can brake with confidence even on long descents.
Questions Answered
What do you recommend using the Scultura 9000 for?
This is an extreme, high-performing drop bar road bike, featuring a lightweight and stiff carbon frame that ensures it's as efficient as it looks. The all-new Shimano Ultegra Di2 offers the crisp, quick-shifting you expect with the inclusion of an additional gear in your rear cassette for better climbing and spinning efficiency. We recommend the Scultura 9000 for seasoned racers looking to upgrade to a 12-speed drivetrain, who demands nothing less than a light and nimble climber.
What makes the Scultura 9000 different?
The Scultura Range has been designed with a lot of technology from Merida's premium aero performance bike, the Reacto. As a result, the Scultura features the high-end aerodynamic DNA of the Reacto, while still maintaining its place as a light, comfortable and affordable climber.
Who is the Scultura 9000 designed for?
The Merida Scultura 9000 is for racers who expect the very best as a bare minimum. This is a fast, lightweight bike that climbs faster and further than ever before. It's particularly suited to climbers and speed demons alike thanks to its wide-range 2 x 12-speed drivetrain and hydraulic disc brakes that mean you can always stop safely. The inclusion of aerodynamic Reynolds Black Label Aero wheels will save you Watts during every stage of your ride, while the Merida Team SL one-piece cockpit only serves to optimise vibration dampening. If you're looking to stay comfortable and get the edge on your rivals the Scultura 9000 is the natural selection for you.
