merida carbon gravel bike Merida Mission 4000 Carbon Gravel Bike 2026

Fast, capable and composed. Our entry-level carbon Mission 4000 is designed for the high-speed, high-stakes world of gravel racing and is based on our latest CF4 carbon fibre gravel race frame. Add high-volume, fast-rolling, off-road-tough gravel tyres, Shimano's proven GRX groupset, Shimano wheels, and a flared handlebar to maximise control on rough tracks, and you have the perfect mix of low weight, sharp but stable handling, and comfort — ideal for fast-paced gravel rides or rough road routes.

Our new Mission truly embodies its ‘fast on any surface’ intentions. It's a gravel race bike that takes key geometry and frame elements from the Scultura Endurance and Silex and adds road racing DNA to deliver a fast and responsive ride on pretty much any surface.

From fast-paced gravel races to tarmac-based chaingang outings, the Mission delivers. Up to 40 mm tyre clearance offers scope for wider gravel racing tyres or large volume road tyres, and its low weight (Mission 10K is around 7.6 kg) makes it fly up the hills.

The Mission’s built-in storage compartment (G.U.T.) improves the accessibility and organisation of crucial mid-race nutrition and spares, further enhancing the efficiency when every second counts. The ability to seamlessly fit 1x or 2x drivetrains offers riders the flexibility to find their preferred set-up fo riding or racing.
