CYThe fifth-generation Merida Reacto is claimed to be ‘around 5% faster than the previous model with similar spec’.
A large part of this improvement is credited to a narrow wing-shaped cockpit, which is said to be the source of half the Reacto’s improvements. Further aero improvements come via a deeper head tube and a slimmer seat tube to save both weight and watts. Other additions include a pair of aero-optimised bottles, which are still in development, a wider 32mm tyre clearance and a broad range of spec options for British and European customers.
Merida Reacto 2026 builds start from £2,400 / €2,800, with the option for premium builds paired with top-end Shimano and SRAM groupsets along with a Classified hub to support 1x configurations.
