We take a look at the climbing bike of choice for Wout Poels and Mikel Landa in 2020
Bahrain-McLaren's new Merida Scultura

Despite dropping back from headline sponsorship duties, Merida has confirmed that it will continue to provide the newly named Bahrain-McLaren team with race bikes for the 2020 season.

This will see racers such as Mikel Landa and Wout Poels riding the newly branded Merida Scultura climbing bike pictured here. The sprinters, such as Mark Cavendish, will, of course, have the use of the Merida Reacto, the brand’s aero bike and the team will also make use of Merida’s time trial bike, the Time Warp.
