Merida Reacto 8000 2026

High-Performance Carbon Aero Road Bike

The Merida Reacto 8000 2026 is a wallet-friendly carbon aero bike designed for uncompromising speed, comfort, and efficiency. Built around Merida’s lightweight CF3 carbon frame, it delivers the perfect blend of cutting-edge aerodynamics, race-ready stiffness, and all-day ride comfort. Equipped with the latest Shimano Ultegra Di2 electronic groupset and a Reynolds AR60 carbon wheelset, this aero road bike is engineered for serious riders who demand precision performance without the premium price tag.

As one of the most respected aero bikes in the peloton, the latest Reacto has been meticulously refined to maximise aerodynamic gains while improving ride quality. Wider tyres enhance comfort on rougher roads, and a series of marginal-gain design upgrades counteract any aerodynamic trade-offs. Using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Merida re-engineered key areas for optimal airflow – from integrating the front Disc Cooler neatly behind the fork to positioning the rear disc caliper within the rear triangle. Even the bolt-through axles were redesigned, incorporating the thread directly into the fork dropout to reduce drag. The result is a bike capable of sustaining 45 km/h with just 209 watts of effort, setting a new standard for speed efficiency.

Hydraulic disc brakes with chainstay-mounted calipers provide exceptional stopping power, while CNC-machined aluminium Disc Cooler fins help dissipate heat and reduce operating temperatures by up to 35%. Every detail is purpose-built for race-winning performance, whether sprinting on the flats, cutting through crosswinds, or climbing at pace.

Key Features:

  • Lightweight Merida CF3 carbon frame with aerodynamic tube shaping

  • Shimano Ultegra Di2 12-speed electronic groupset for precise, reliable shifting

  • Reynolds AR60 carbon wheelset for speed, stiffness, and responsive handling

  • CFD-optimised frame and component integration for maximum aerodynamic efficiency

  • Hydraulic disc brakes with heat-reducing Disc Cooler technology for consistent braking power

  • Wider tyre clearance for enhanced comfort without sacrificing speed

Perfect for competitive road racing, high-speed training, and riders seeking a world-class aero bike at exceptional value, the Merida Reacto 8000 2026 is built to perform at the very highest level.
