{"product_id":"merida-scultura-endurance-4000-2027","title":"Scultura Endurance 4000 2027","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarbon starts here in the endurance range. The Scultura Endurance 4000 uses the CF3 carbon frame and matching CF3 carbon fork, with Nano Matrix resin worked into the layup to improve impact resistance, and builds it up with a mechanical Shimano 105 groupset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe geometry is what makes this bike worth a look if you are not chasing a race position. A longer head tube gives you a more upright, sustainable posture, while a slacker head angle and slightly longer wheelbase keep the bike calm at speed and forgiving late in a ride. Tyre clearance runs to 35c, or 32c with mudguards fitted, so you can fit larger volume rubber and run lower pressures on broken tarmac.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame details are tidy rather than showy. Cables route internally through the headset, the seat clamp is fully integrated, the rear seat stay bridge can be removed if you are not running mudguards, and the flat mount rear caliper sits on CNC machined aluminium Disc Cooler fins that the brand says cut brake operating temperatures by up to 35%. The rear end uses a 142 x 12mm axle and the bottom bracket is BB86 pressfit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe build is 2 x 12 Shimano 105 throughout, with an 11-34 cassette, 50-34 chainset and 105 hydraulic disc brakes. Merida Expert SL III alloy rims are laced to Shimano TC500 Centerlock hubs and are tubeless ready, Maxxis RE-FUSE 32c tyres add some puncture protection for winter miles, and the seatpost is carbon. The stem includes a SMART MOUNT fitting for a computer or light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCF3 carbon frame with Nano Matrix resin for improved impact resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching Scultura Endurance CF3 carbon fork, 12mm bolt-through axles front and rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEndurance geometry: longer head tube, slacker head angle, longer wheelbase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimano 105 R7100 2 x 12 mechanical drivetrain, 11-34 cassette and 50-34 chainset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes, rear caliper flat mounted onto Disc Cooler fins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubeless-ready Merida Expert SL III alloy wheels on Shimano TC500 Centerlock hubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaxxis RE-FUSE 32c tyres, carbon Expert SL seatpost and a SMART MOUNT stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClearance for 35c tyres, or 32c with mudguards fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications::Scultura Endurance 4000\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiscipline: Road\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Carbon\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eGroupset: Shimano 105 2x12\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrakes: Hydraulic disc\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWheel Size: 700c\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMax Tyre: 35c\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrame - \u003c\/strong\u003eCF3 carbon, Nano Matrix for impact resistance.
