Hi everyone
Planning to buy my first carbon road bike. After doing alot of test rides on various bikes within my budget for the past weekends I have narrowed down to the Merida Scultura 905 2014 or BMC SL01 Ultegra 2013.
They both run ultegra, however the scultura is 11 speed and the SL01 is I think 10 speed.
Looking for opinions.
Thanks
carbon road bike merida or bmc?

The one you feel most comfortable on.
I guess the question down the road is, when your group set wears out, what will it take to convert the BMC to 11 speed.

I ride a 907 2013 and am very happy with it...
Loving my Merida's and working towards adding a Pinarello to the stable... Go go go...
