Merida Scultura 9000 review: a slept-on road bike with racing pedigree

Merida Scultura 9000 review.

It's been over two years since Merida released the latest Scultura race bike, but as our Race Bike of the Year testing showed, it's still one of the best road bikes on the market today.

Merida has provided a platform that might not stand out as well as the competition on the spec sheet, with less aero detailing and a slightly higher weight, but this is more than made up for in ride feel. On the road, the Scultura feels fast and responsive, all for a relatively reasonable cost.
