Merida Ride 7000 (2015)

The 2015 Merida Ride 7000 is a high-end road bike. Kitted out with Shimano's ultra-reliable Ultegra mechanical group, its low-profile brakes offering precise control and the drivetrain incorporating the very efficient Rotor crank. Wheels are Fulcrum Racing, lightweight and fast rolling, clad in Continental slicks. The Ride is a long-distance bike; geometry is slightly relaxed, the all-carbon frameset keeps road vibration to a minimum, and the treads are slightly fatter 25s.
A very good all-day road bike.
