Merida Reacto 5000
Unadulterated aero road bike speed
The latest generation of the REACTO has taken the international cycling press by storm. An impressive series of test wins, top ratings, and awards underscores the successful combination of the predecessor's race-proven DNA and state-of-the-art technologies.
Cycling Weekly describes it as "undoubtedly one of the most complete bicycles on the market", Cyclingnews speaks of "an absolutely brilliant and flawless machine" and Cycling Plus was "deeply impressed".
From the ambitious racer to the enthusiastic enthusiast and the performance-oriented road cyclist – the REACTO impresses across the board. Outstanding aerodynamics, low weight, precise handling, and explosive acceleration make it the perfect choice for criteriums and sprints. At the same time, its class-leading comfort ensures that the REACTO confidently exploits its aerodynamic advantage even on cobblestones or bumpy training roads.
Following in the footsteps of the popular REACTO 6000
Closely based on the celebrated REACTO 6000, but with a slightly more budget-friendly wheelset and an outstanding price-performance ratio, the REACTO 5000 presents itself with Shimano 105 Di2 equipment.
Based on our extensively tested and award-winning full carbon REACTO frame, the 5000 is brought to life with high-quality, high-performance components. One of the most aerodynamically advanced frame and fork combinations on the market meets the super-smooth and lightning-fast Shimano 105 Di2 12-speed groupset. Complemented by highlights such as the MERIDA S-FLEX Carbon Aero seatpost, the result is a road bike that combines speed, acceleration, and comfort in an impressive array.
