Two niggles have emerged. The headset was rattled apart by the bad roads and required a new top bearing, swiftly sorted by Merida. The freehub is dragging, too, so as a precaution I’ve sent it off investigation. That aside, my respect for the Scultura grows, especially its gravity mocking weight and instinctive handling. Both were highlighted while riding in the British Peak District on sister title Cycling Plus’s Sportive Weekender. We took in some brutal climbs, giddy descents and had hail, snow, sunshine and rain to keep us on our toes.
