Merida Reacto 6000 2026 - Road Bike

The Merida Reacto 6000 is a fast aero bike designed to balance speed with everyday comfort. Built around the CF3 carbon frame sharing the same race-proven geometry and aerodynamic profiling as the flagship CF5, but with a more accessible carbon lay-up, it offers riders a competitive blend of efficiency and comfort.
Key Features
- CF3 IV carbon aero frame with Disc Cooler & race geometry
- Reacto CF3 IV Disc full carbon fork
- Shimano 105 Di2 12-speed electronic drivetrain
- Shimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors
- Vision SC 60 carbon wheels with Continental Grand Prix TR tyres
- Merida Team CW carbon aero seatpost with integrated minitool
- Available with 0% APR finance
Using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics, Merida refined every aspect of the Reacto to reduce drag. Innovations such as integrating the Disc Cooler into the fork, positioning the rear brake caliper neatly within the rear triangle, and developing bolt-through axles with the thread hidden inside the dropout all work together to minimise turbulence and maximise aerodynamic performance.
This model is equipped with the latest Shimano 105 Di2 electronic groupset, offering precise 12-speed shifting with a wide 11-34t cassette and a 52/36 chainset. Hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors deliver consistent stopping power and improved heat management, keeping control sharp on descents.
Wheels come courtesy of the Vision SC 60 carbon wheelset, tubeless-ready with a 60mm depth for aerodynamic advantage and paired with 28mm Continental Grand Prix TR tyres that add both grip and comfort. The Reacto’s design accommodates up to 30mm tyres, giving you scope for even more compliance on rougher roads.
Details like the Merida Team CW aero carbon seatpost with integrated mini-tool, and Merida’s Expert cockpit components, round out the build with thoughtful touches that balance performance and practicality. Reviews consistently praise the Reacto for its poise and completeness, making it a reliable choice for riders looking for aero gains without sacrificing comfort.
