At roughly 1,150-1,185g for a mid-size frame, it's built specifically around modern Shimano 105 12-speed mechanical disc compatibility, with fully internal cable routing and Merida's Disc Cooler technology for more predictable braking under hard efforts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a frame for riders who want a serious aero road foundation without paying flagship prices, and who'd rather choose their own groupset, wheels, and cockpit than buy a fixed-spec build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reacto platform is built for unadulterated aero performance — sharp acceleration, high-speed stability, and the kind of responsive handling that rewards effort when the pace lifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWhy You'll Like It\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSame aero shape as the flagship Reacto\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CF3 frame uses the identical super-aero tube profiles as Merida's top-level Reacto models — you're getting the aerodynamic development, not a watered-down shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenuinely lightweight for an aero frame\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 1,150-1,185g for a mid-size frame is light by aero-bike standards, where extra weight is usually the trade-off for a fast shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt around modern disc mechanical groupsets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned specifically for Shimano 105 12-speed mechanical disc compatibility, with Disc Cooler technology for more consistent braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComfort-oriented details in an aero shape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn S-Flex-style carbon aero seatpost design helps take the edge off longer rides — comfort isn't sacrificed entirely for the aero profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRace-proven, club-friendly handling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBalanced, confident handling that suits riders taking their first steps into racing as well as anyone building a dependable bike for spirited group rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWho Is It For?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis frameset suits riders who want a genuine aero-race platform to build their own bike around — club racers, aspiring competitors, or anyone upgrading from a complete bike who now wants control over their own component choices. It's a strong first step into aero road racing without committing to the cost of Merida's flagship Reacto tier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn India, riders should plan their groupset and cockpit purchase alongside the frame, since the internal routing is sized for specific setups — your BOTS mechanic can advise on compatible component choices before the build begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eGood to Know\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHave your BOTS fitter confirm size against Merida's Reacto size chart before ordering — aero frames like this typically run a more aggressive fit than an endurance frame of the same nominal size. Plan your groupset (Shimano 105 mechanical disc) before your local shop preps the frame, since the internal cable routing and Disc Cooler system are built around that specific setup. A professional build is worth it on a frame at this level to keep the internal routing clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: CF3 Carbon Fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Fibre, disc-specific\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTire Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Up to 32mm (frame), up to 30mm (fork)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxle Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100x12mm (front), 142x12mm (rear), thru-axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottom Bracket Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: BB86.5, Press Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Disc, flat mount, Disc Cooler technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Routing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDi2 Compatible\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes (Shimano 105 12-speed mechanical or Di2 disc compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImported By\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extreme Adventure Sports, Gat No. 399, Milkat, 2289, Nagar Rd, Sai Satyam Park, Wagholi, Lonikand, Pune - 412207, Maharashtra, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCustomer Care Address\u003c\/strong\u003e: 291, 10 Main, 5 Block, Jayanagar, Bangalore - 560041.
