The own-brand saddle is not the most comfortable I’ve used though and I found that I tended to slip forward on it as I rode. Merida’s aero seat post, with its large elastomer insert in its rear face, provides better ride comfort than many aero posts. I found the diameter of the tops of the Merida own-brand alloy aero bars slightly small, so there wasn’t quite the purchase and flat area to the tops that you’d get on a higher diameter aerobar. They come with straight pull spokes and 6-bolt rotor attachment. At 35mm deep, they match the bike’s aero design without being overly aggressive. The Reacto Disc 6000’s wheels are Fulcrum Racing 400 alloy clinchers.

You get a full Ultegra groupset on the Reacto Disc 6000
Shifting quality and braking are as efficient as you’d expect, despite this. But although you get the latest R8000 gearing, the test bike does not have the latest generation salami-slicer rotors, as Shimano only makes these for its own centerlock standard.
The Reacto Disc 6000 comes kitted out with Shimano’s superb Ultegra Hydraulic groupset. In contrast to the chunkiness of the other frame tubes, the top tube is quite svelte and has a nice sweep behind the stem to aid aerodynamics. These are not anchored and I found that they could slip out of alignment as I rode. The Reacto Disc 6000 also comes with a stack of aero spacers below the stem. Coupled with the seat post and head tube length, this gives more adjustability and a less aggressive riding position. There’s a separate bar and stem in contrast to the CF4’s one piece aerobar. It also comes with an aero carbon seatpost with a flippable head, so you can make the effective seat tube angle three degrees steeper. The CF2 frameset has a 15mm higher head tube than the CF4 frameset. Seatstays are in the usual dropped position for an aero frame but don't step out as much at the top as some
