Based around the latest, super smooth 12-speed 105 groupset from Shimano and featuring our award-winning SCULTURA CF3 full carbon frame, the SCULTURA 4000 is far from an entry bike to our latest SCULTURA frame design family. Similarly to its bigger brothers, it combines a long list of air slicing features and race-proven geometry, adapted from our REACTO family, with low weight and class-leading riding comfort creating an almost unbeatable package.
The fifth generation of our lightweight racer marries outstanding handling with improved comfort and an even more aerodynamic chassis. Thanks to incorporating selected aero details from our test and award-winning REACTO aero bike, the SCULTURA is the most aerodynamic version ever. Yet, it remains true to its lightweight, agility and rider comfort focus; in fact it takes these factors to the next level, so far that Cycling Weekly gave it the highly sought after 'Best Value Race Bike of the Year 2024' award. The SCULTURA demonstrates outstanding compliance, providing the rider with class-leading riding comfort that will help to keep the body fresh for the final sprint or ascent. Available in CF5 and CF3 carbon frame versions, both sharing their geometry with the World Tour proven REACTO, our classic road bike combines outstanding comfort with whippet-like acceleration and class-leading climbing pedigree.
