Merida has launched a new gravel model at Eurobike this weekend designed specifically for gravel racing. The new model is the Scultura Endurance GR, which Merida says shares a lot of the same character traits as the road-going Scultura Endurance. Signalling the race-orientated nature of the new Scultura GR, time will tell whether it ends up joining the ranks of the best gravel race bikes.
Merida says that with the gravel racing scene constantly growing, it was time to add a dedicated gravel race bike to their range. The Scultura Endurance GR will sit alongside the Silex, a bike aimed at bikepacking and adventure rides. It will be available in two carbon and one aluminium option and will handle everything from gravel Gran Fondos to fast gravel training sessions.
