Sitting between the Silex and Scultura in our road range, the Merida Scultura Endurance 400 Road Bike is aimed at tarmac adventure riding.The Scultura Endurance geometry is perfectly suited to riders who want to enjoy long hours in the saddle while being comfortable and relaxed on the bike.Endowed with a modern frame design and comfort-orientated geometry the Scultura Endurance has a longer head tube creating a more upright and comfort-orientated seating position. The slacker head tube 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 are running mudguards), larger volume tyres can be run at lower pressures and provide more comfort even on the most pothole littered country lanes.They’ve 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 models are equipped with powerful hydraulic disc brakes. Calipers are mounted via the flat mount standard for a neat, flush fit. Calipers sit on top of CNC’d aluminium Disc Cooler fins which reduce operating temperatures by up to 35%.Merida Scultura Endurance 400 Road Bike HighlightsComfortable, confidence inspiring geometryLightweight triple butted 6066 aluminium frame with full carbon tapered fork2 x 11 Shimano 105 transmission with Shimano 105 compact chainsetShimano 105 hydraulic disc brakesCarbon seat postMaxxis Detonator 32c tyres
