Disc brakes are all the rage at the moment and the Scultura comes equipped with Promax Mechanical Disc Brakes for all weather braking control and confidence. The 200 is equipped with a 2x9 speed Shimano Sora Drivetrain which is ideal for the entry level rider, offering a reliable range of gears for all gradients and you can always trust Shimano. All-around this bike provides good value, it is a decent step up from the 2X8 Speed Shimano Claris on the Scultura 100 yet fares well in comparison to the 2x10 speed Shimano Tiagra on the Scultura 300. The Merida Scultura 200 is a value packed entry-level roadie the ticks every box for the recreational rider.

Features

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.

Aero Profiled Tubing: Our wind tunnel learnings from the REACTO design project have been used to create a smaller aerodynamically optimised ‘NACA Fastback’ tube profile. The more extreme truncation of the teardrop shaped tubes enables perfect airflow at the lowest possible weight.

Bolt Through Axles: All SCULTURA DISC bikes feature 12 mm bolt through axles for greater wheel stiffness and precise disc alignment when replacing wheels. The axle lever is removable and has a 4 mm Allen key included, so for example stem, seat post clamp screws can be tightened and loosened.
