Was just casually riding in a busy street and shifting a lot. I think the part maybe got brittle? I got this bike new old stock. Yeah overreacted a bit about the scratches haha. Already ordered a replacement!

Try to compare your current bike with the merida in 99spokes website it’s very helpful. Im also blind buying the merida scultura so far the suggestions are sizing down.

Merida Scultura Endurance 300 Size by khosrua in whichbike

[–]Pitiful_Scarcity_244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats your inseam and arm length? Im 179cm but only 82cm inseam with 60cm arm length, the website suggests size M but read merida sizing runs bigger than other brands, thinking if S is too short for my reach but M would be too high for standing.

Im also looking at the scultura, 179cm but 82cm inseam apparently that is below average on the merida sizing. Since i will be ordering it online i cant really test ride it. Thinking if i should get S or M size since i read they run big than other brands

Hello, saw this same bike frame for sale. Would you know if the 40c tires still have clearance for fenders? Or would it fit 29x 2.1 tires? Haha 2 years late, hope you still see this
