Merida Reacto 5000 (2022)

The most popular REACTO in our line-up. The 5000 features our proven CF3 carbon aero frame with complete cable integration and tyre clearance of up to 30 mm tyres. Wider tyres in combination with the remarkable S-FLEX carbon seat post provide impressive comfort for an aero bike, while the race-proven geometry keeps handling sharp yet predictable. The REACTO is the perfect bike for when you want to leave your mark at the races or just be the fastest out of all your riding buddies.

Newly launched in 2021, the latest version of the REACTO took the cycling press by storm. A long string of test wins, perfect scores and awards confirm our successful symbiosis of the race-proven DNA of the previous model with the latest trends and technologies. Cycling Weekly calls it 'without doubt one of the most complete bikes available on the market', Cyclingnews 'an utterly brilliant and faultless machine' and Cycling Plus were 'hugely impressed'. From serious racer via enthusiast to the ambitious road rider, the REACTO is a great bike for many people. Its outstanding aerodynamic performance, reduced weight, sharp handling and super quick acceleration makes it the perfect bike for criterium racers and sprinters. At the same time, the class-leading comfort gives it the ability to play out its aerodynamic advantage also on the cobblestones – or the idyllic but potholed littered lanes of your favourite training ride.
