Merida Road Race Bike | Scultura Rim 300

SCULTURA RIM 300
Triple butted aluminum frame with full carbon tapered fork and classic rim brakes. Only very few bikes offer this frame package at the entry-level of their road range. A solid ride with reliable components for long-lasting road riding fun.

Beautifully crafted lightweight aluminum frame with internal cable routing, aero profiled tubing, tapered head tube for precise steering, and classic rim brakes. By maintaining the proven geometry, rather than following the more aggressive alternative of our new top-end SCULTURA frames, the 300 offers the perfect balance between sharp handling and acceleration on one side and a more relaxed and comfortable riding position on the other. While not as upright as our ENDURANCE LITE frame, the 300 offers an exciting option for the less aggressive road rider on a budget.

Rather than featuring the more aggressive and race-proven geometry of the CF5 and CF3 models, the CF2 and aluminum SCULTURA models retain their slightly more relaxed geometry. Within this family, we offer our bikes powerful and easy-to-modulate disc brakes that deliver constant braking power even in wetter conditions or the more price aggressive rim brake alternative. Due to the less aggressive geometry, our CF2 and aluminum models are ideal for riders who are getting into the sport as well as for those who prefer a slightly more upright position when hitting the lanes.

• Full carbon tapered fork
• Less aggressive geometry than the SCULTURA CF5 and CF3 models
• Shimano Tiagra 10-speed drivetrain and rim brakes
• MERIDA EXPERT SL handlebarMERIDA COMP CC stem.

Technologies

Pro-Lite 66 Triple-Butted Aluminum
Our proven high-end aluminum (6066) is extremely light and durable. Using triple-butted wall thicknesses and hydroforming technology, we can tune the aluminum tubes to give the best possible stiffness to weight ratio.

HFS - Hydro Forming System
Tubes are inserted into negative molds and a hot emulsion of water and oil is forced through at pressure, enabling them to be formed into complex shapes.

Smooth Welding
Sometimes called ‘double pass welding, a second pass over the weld gives a clean organic look to the frame. At first glance, you will be convinced it is carbon.

X-Taper Headtube
Our X-Tapered headtube offers the space for a tapered fork to be fitted. Tapered forks offer superb stiffness and precision and deliver confidence-inspiring steering.

Internal Cable Routing
Cables are routed through the frame, entering and exiting through smooth sockets. The bike looks neat, whilst the cables are protected from moisture and dirt.
