One of the most aerodynamically advanced frame and fork combinations, combined with the super smooth and fast Shimano 105 Di2 groupset and S-FLEX seatpost, give the REACTO 5000 speed, acceleration and comfort.\u003cbr\u003eThe latest version of the REACTO has convinced the trade press. A long series of test wins, perfect scores and awards confirm successful symbiosis of the race-proven DNA of the previous model with the latest trends and technologies. Cycling Weekly called it ‘without doubt one of the most complete bikes on the market’, Cyclingnews ‘an absolutely brilliant and flawless machine’ and Cycling Plus was ‘hugely impressed’. From the professional cyclist to the amateur, and the passionate road cyclist, the REACTO is a great bike for many people. Its outstanding aerodynamic performance, low weight, easy handling, and super-fast acceleration make it the perfect bike for circuit racers and sprinters. At the same time, its class-leading comfort gives it the ability to exploit its aerodynamic advantage even on cobblestones or the roads you ride on during training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight CF3 carbon aero frame \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimano 105 Di2 12-speed electronic groupset \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandlebar combination FSA ACR SMR\/MERIDA EXPERT CW \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWIRE PORT cable integration \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMERIDA S-FLEX aerodynamic carbon seatpost \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDISC COOLER technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFRAME: REACTO CF3 IV, material: carbon, wheel size 700x30C, axle 100x12\/ 142x12mm standard, bottom bracket BB86,5 standard \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFORK: REACTO CF3 IV DISC, material: carbon, wheel size 700x30C max.

A larger headset diameter at the bottom paired with a smaller one at the top helps to deal with the strains modern riding and equipment can put on the headtube, all without adding unnecessary weight.

The cables enter and exit the frame through smooth sockets, or we use one of our other systems like SMART ENTRY or WIRE PORT to be routed through. Running the cables inside the frame protects them from the elements, gives a clean and neat look and can offer aerodynamic advantages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNano Matrix Carbon\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNANO MATRIX CARBON is a special kind of carbon fibre where we add extremely tiny, nano-scale particles to the resin that binds the individual carbon fibres together. These then work on a molecular level to protect them from damage. It’s so effective that it can actually increase the finished carbon fibre’s impact resistance by up to 40%, allowing us to build stronger and lighter composite frames that result in a faster and tougher bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAWS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a method we use to manufacture our carbon fibre frames. First, the carbon fibre that makes up the frame is laid around special formers. We then use a bladder to compress the layers against the outside of the frame mould, giving a smooth and wrinkle-free internal finish, removing any voids in between the layers of carbon that can cause potential weak points, resulting in a stronger, lighter frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNaca Fastback Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a special kind of tube shape that helps reduce aerodynamic drag while also helping to reduce weight. It’s based around a teardrop profile that was originally developed in the aeronautical industry, but the rearmost portion of the profile is cut short. This reduces the amount of material needed to make the tube, but air still flows around it just as well, giving all the aerodynamic benefits but at a lower weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDisc Cooler\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed on our carbon fibre road and gravel bikes, DISC COOLER is a finned piece of forged aluminium that sits between the brake calliper and frame. The aluminium piece helps to draw heat from the braking system and radiates it away quickly. It reduces the temperatures by up to 35% and helps to keep your brakes working at their best for improved control and performance on long descents and under heavy braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInternal Clamp\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen every second counts, the smallest of details can make the difference between winning and losing, so we look at every aspect of our frames to make them as sleek as possible. By using a seat post clamping mechanism that secures the post with a wedge inside the frame itself, we minimise the turbulence and potential drag while keeping post height adjustment simple, giving a frame that is more aerodynamic and also better looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prd-technologies\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWire Port\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMERIDA designed headsets that enable all control cables from the handlebar to enter the frame through the headset cover, creating a clean and uncluttered look, allowing for a lighter, stronger and more aerodynamic frame structure than with conventional cable ports. Depending on the model, the cables are run completely internally (including the bar and stem) or semi-integrated, where the cables enter the frame underneath the stem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer's note\u003c\/strong\u003e: Technical specifications are subject to change without notice\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Merida Bikes","offers":[{"title":"Pearl White - Black \/ L","offer_id":48058277036273,"sku":"A62511A00393","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl White - Black \/ S","offer_id":48058277069041,"sku":"A62511A00391","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl White - Black \/ XS","offer_id":48058277101809,"sku":"A62511A00390","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl White - Black \/ XXS","offer_id":48058277134577,"sku":"A62511A00389","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl - Blue Team \/ L","offer_id":48058277167345,"sku":"A62511A03959","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl - Blue Team \/ M","offer_id":48058277200113,"sku":"A62511A03958","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl - Blue Team \/ S","offer_id":48058277232881,"sku":"A62511A03957","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl - Blue Team \/ XS","offer_id":48058277265649,"sku":"A62511A03956","price":4031.02,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0794\/1580\/4145\/files\/zm_20250403-010204.jpg?v=1776531182","url":"https:\/\/novasportsbikes.com\/products\/merida-reacto-5000-iv3-bike-1","provider":"Nova Sports Bikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
