With its high-quality lightweight carbon fibre frame the Merida Ride 5000 Juliet women's road bike is a fast-paced endurance bike with compliance features. Ride faster for longer.
At the heart of the Ride 5000 Juliet is an ultra-lightweight composite carbon frame. Flex Stays are designed to offer vertical compliance to soak up vibrations while staying laterally rigid for efficient power transfer. The carbon fibres are bonded with an epoxy resin with added nano particles that improve impact resistance of the frame by 40%.
Geometry is optimised for endurance road cycling with a slightly shorter top tube and longer headtube that create a more comfortable upright riding position so your muscles stay fresher for longer. Smaller frame sizes than the unisex Ride, women's components and Prologo Kappa Dea saddle optimise fit for female cyclists.
The full carbon fork provides precise steering control while also absorbing road buzz for added comfort. Equipped is the premium level Shimano Ultegra 2x11 speed drivetrain offering silky smooth shifting over a wide range of gears.
The Ride 5000 women's sportive bike blends speed and comfort so you can perform at your best.
