After four years as a co-title sponsor with LAMPRE-MERIDA, at the beginning of 2017, MERIDA BIKES joined the BAHRAIN MERIDA Pro Cycling Team, not just as a technical sponsor but also as the main partner of this newly formed team. After three incredible years, MERIDA BIKES then joined forces with the Team BAHRAIN McLAREN for the 2020 season. It’s safe to say 2020 was a challenging year for the pro peloton with its fair share of ups and downs, but for 2021 MERIDA is staying with the BAHRAIN Cycling Team and forming the new Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS as the official bicycle supplier and technical partner. This move allows us to fully concentrate on providing the team with the best material possible.
Over the three years of its existence, the BAHRAIN MERIDA Pro Cycling Team managed to achieve an impressive tally of 199 podium spots, 53 of which were on the top step. Despite the challenges of pandemic-hindered 2020, BAHRAIN McLAREN still managed to generate a string of positive results (37 podium places including 9 top step results) which fired the team up more than ever to dive into the next chapter of the BAHRAIN Cycling Team Project. At MERIDA, this feeling is mutual and we are immensely proud to look back at what we have achieved together. However, it is now time to look forwards and to put all our efforts into supporting the new Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS. The new team will have access to three different bikes, allowing the individual rider to go for their preferred setup as well as tailor their machines perfectly for the various terrains, courses and conditions. The riders will use the MERIDA SCULTURA and REACTO on stages and single-day events and the TIME WARP dedicated TT bike for individual and team time trials.
The 2021 roster of Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS: Yukiya Arashiro (JPN), Phil Bauhaus (GER), Pello Bilbao (ESP), Santiago Buitrago (COL), Eros Capecchi (ITA), Damiano Caruso (ITA), Sonny Colbrelli (ITA), Feng Chun-Kai (TWN), Scott Davies (GBR), Jack Haig (AUS), Marco Haller (AUT), Heinrich Haussler (AUS), Kevin Inkelaar (NED), Mikel Landa (ESP), Ahmed Madan (BHR), Gino Mäder (CHE), Jonathan Milan (ITA), Matej Mohoric (SLO), Domen Novak (SLO), Mark Padun (UKR), Hermann Pernsteiner (AUT), Wout Poels (NED), Marcel Sieberg (GER), Dylan Teuns (BEL), Jan Tratnik (SLO), Rafael Valls (ESP), Stephen Williams (GBR) and Alfred Wright (GBR).

REACTO DISC TEAM
Newly developed for 2021 and already a multiple test and award-winning aero bike – the REACTO is the leading bike in its class. The press has highly praised our REACTO for being one of the most comfortable, responsive and aerodynamically efficient bikes, but its versatility means it is also one of the main bikes of Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS for a wide range of race profiles. Equipped with the latest in disc brake technology, the team will benefit from extra braking power and perfect modulation on today's demanding courses.

SCULTURA DISC TEAM
Our lightweight racer is at the cutting edge of design, powering our WorldTour team to Grand Tour podiums. While being slightly aerodynamically disadvantaged compared to the REACTO, the SCULTURA combines class-leading comfort with whippet-like acceleration and stage-winning climbing pedigree. The SCULTURA DISC frame tops the scale at just 830g in size 54 cm and offers impressive clearance, allowing tyres up to 28mm to be run. It is also equipped with the latest disc-brake technology, for perfect modulation and improved braking power.

TIME WARP TT TEAM
Designed and launched in the second part of the 2018 season, the TIME WARP TT has seen dramatic improvements over its predecessor. Due to a new integrated carbon cockpit, full cable integration, aerodynamic brake housing and further frame design tweaks, the R&D team was able to reduce the aerodynamic drag by 9 Watts. Besides that, the overall weight was reduced by 400 g, which has a significant impact on demanding and undulating time trial courses. Totally focussed on aerodynamic performance, no other MERIDA road bike has spent more time in the wind tunnel. Developed with our professional riders to use in the time trial stages of the WorldTour, the frame is designed around 'NACA Fastback' tube profiles. Pro riders may be similar in terms of ability and fitness, but their shape and riding style varies dramatically. A key feature on the TIME WARP TT is a modular cockpit which gives the rider the ability to adjust the aero position depending on personal preferences and race conditions.
