Style | Top components paired with the test and award-winning REACTO frame make the perfect recipe for this top-level aero bike. Racing is in its blood, while it also likes to show off on extended club rides or fast and furious chain gang sessions. Only the latest equipment from SRAM, Reynolds and Continental is good enough to turn our super-light CF5 carbon frame into a top-end aero race machine. Outstanding acceleration and power transfer paired with low weight, impressive aerodynamics, perfect cable integration, and remarkable aero bike comfort set the REACTO 9000 apart from the rest. Racing, long-distance rides or challenging club outings, the REACTO will take your riding to the next level. Unadulterated aero road speed. 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. The hydraulic disc brake callipers are mounted via the flat mount standard for a neat, flush fit. They sit on top of CNC'd aluminium Disc Cooler fins which reduce operating temperatures by up to 35%. Highlights: - Superlight pro level CF5 IV carbon aero frame: the highest quality fibres for minimum weight, aggressive Pro-Tour geometry and extensive aerodynamic profiling; weight approx. 950g for the medium size - SRAM Force eTap AXS wireless 12-speed groupset - SRAM force eTap AXS Powermeter - Reynolds BLACKLABEL 60 PR Aero carbon wheelset: based around Reynolds' Dispersive Effect Termination (DET2) rim profile, the 60mm deep BLACKLABEL rims are optimised to lower drag and provide unmatched stability in crosswinds when used with modern, wider tyre profiles; the rims feature a 21mm tubeless ready rim channel and a precision crafted hub by Industry Nine that lowers rolling resistance, enhances lateral stiffness and improves the overall ride quality to give you every advantage in your search for speed; wheelset weight: 1500g - Continental GP5000 S tubeless ready tyres - Merida TEAM SL integrated carbon cockpit - Merida S-Flex seat post - Disc Cooler technology Details: NACA FASTBACK PROFILE This 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. NANO MATRIX CARBON A special kind of carbon fibre where extremely tiny, nano-scale particles are added 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. WIRE PORT All control cables like gear, brake and dropper post cable enter the frame through a specifically shaped headset cap, cleaning up the cockpit area while also keeping them out of harm's way. Only the internally routed cable for the rear shock lockout enters the frame directly into the top tube for extra smooth lockout action. INTERNAL CLAMP When 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. DISC COOLER TECHNOLOGY 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.
