Introducing the Merida Scultura Endurance: an aluminium tarmac endurance bike that seamlessly integrates the performance of a road bike with the comfort of an endurance machine. Positioned between the Silex and Scultura models in Merida's road range, the Scultura Endurance is specifically designed for tarmac adventure riding.
Crafted from high-quality 6066 aluminum, the frame of the Scultura Endurance prioritizes lightweight construction without compromising on durability. Paired with a full carbon tapered fork, this bike delivers a smooth, responsive ride that enhances your cycling experience.
Equipped with a reliable Shimano 105 2 x 11 drivetrain and hydraulic disc brakes, the Scultura Endurance ensures precise shifting and powerful braking performance in various riding conditions. The compact chainset allows for efficient pedalling, while the hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent and reliable stopping power, instilling confidence during descents and cornering.
Designed with rider comfort in mind, the Scultura Endurance features a geometry optimized for long hours in the saddle. The longer head tube creates a more upright and relaxed seating position, reducing strain on the back and neck. Additionally, the slacker head tube angle and slightly longer wheelbase enhance stability at higher speeds, allowing you to tackle challenging terrain easily.
One notable feature of the Scultura Endurance is its ample clearance, accommodating tyres up to 35c (or 32c with mudguards). This allows larger-volume tyres to be run at lower pressures, providing increased comfort and traction, particularly on rough or uneven surfaces.
Merida has incorporated thoughtful details into the design of the Scultura Endurance to optimize performance and aesthetics. Shifting and brake cables are routed internally through the headset, creating a clean and streamlined cockpit. The flat mount hydraulic disc brake calipers are mounted flush to the frame, enhancing the bike's sleek appearance.
Furthermore, CNC'd aluminium disc cooler fins on the callipers effectively reduce operating temperatures, ensuring consistent brake performance even during prolonged descents or intense riding sessions.
In summary, the Merida Scultura Endurance perfectly balances performance, comfort, and versatility. It is ideal for cyclists seeking adventure on tarmac roads while enjoying long, comfortable rides in any terrain.
