Merida Reacto 300 2015 - Road Bike
A brand new offering for 2015, the Reacto 300 takes all the best parts of Merida's mid-range carbon aero racer and brings it into budget for a lot more people. Featuring the same geometry as the Carbon Reacto models and the same full carbon fork, the 300 is built around an exceptional 6066 aluminium alloy frame.
This alloy used in the Reacto 300 is the highest grade with the best stiffness to weight ratio used in bike manufacturing. At this price point you tend to find a brand's use 6061 alloy which is of a slightly lower grade.
At £1000 the Reacto is eligible for Cycle to Work schemes too - something worth considering, and the Reacto would make a rapid commuter machine. And, for £1000 you get a triple butted frame with a full carbon tapered fork, 20 speed Shimano Tiagra gears and a carbon seatpost. That's brilliant value.
The tapered carbon fork improves front end stiffness and steering precision, which is great for racing. This Merida is a great choice for beginner road racers and aspiring triathletes wanting real speed on a tight budget.
