If you are looking for a highly comfortable road bike that can easily deal with rough road surfaces to make long road outings less strenuous, then look no further. The SCULTURA ENDURANCE 400 features a 6066 triple butted aluminium frame with the same geometry as the test and award-winning carbon fibre CF3 alternative. The more cost-effective yet beautifully crafted aluminium frame allows us to open up the super popular ENDURANCE family to a bigger audience without compromising on the sleek appearance of its carbon counterparts. The super precise electronic 105 Di2 drivetrain, in combination with the powerful disc brakes, keeps shifting and braking in perfect check.
- Lightweight 6066 triple butted and hydroformed aluminium frame with comfort oriented geometry for confidence inspiring handling
- Full carbon tapered fork
- Under-saddle pouch with MERIDA multitool
- Shimano 105 11-speed groupset
- MERIDA EXPERT SL wheelset
- WIRE PORT cable integration
The SCULTURA ENDURANCE is the perfect choice for more leisure-focused cyclists who want to enjoy long hours in the saddle while being comfortable and relaxed on the bike. Wide tyres offer plenty of comfort, even on the most pothole-littered country lanes, while a longer head tube provides a more relaxed riding position. An instant hit with the international cycling press and besides being given a ‘comfort’ award by RennRad, it also managed to get a long list of compliments like ‘excellent comfort’, ‘confidence inspiring’, ‘lively feel’ and ‘enjoyable’ by reference cycling media such as Gran Fondo, Cyclingnews, Cyclingtips and Road.cc. Compared to its namesake, the SCULTURA, the ENDURANCE has a more comfort-orientated geometry, plenty of tyre clearance and seamless integration of the latest standards. It sits between the road-biased SCULTURA on one side and the gravel/adventure SILEX on the other, while the SCULTURA ENDURANCE GR lineup offers gravel-racing focussed options with off-road ready tyres and flared handlebars.
The well-proven WIRE PORT cable management system keeps the cockpit free of cables and helps to give the bike a super sleek overall appearance.
