The Rival Pro Tee features a lightweight but shock-absorbing Auxagon back protector. This provides CE EN 1621.2 Level 2 protection, protecting you from hard impacts should you push skills too far, and yet won't restrict your movement. It also keeps weight and bulk to a minimum, and also allows sweat to escape, preventing clamminess after rowdy ride sessions. The auxetic protectors also extend to the shoulders, chest and false ribs for coverage of the most impact-prone areas. The jersey is virtually imperceptible and entirely concealed under an outfit due to its form-fitting shape and the minimalist design of its protectors. The long cut allows it to be worn comfortably inside pants or shorts, ensuring maximum stability of the protection during every phase of activity. Simple and immediate to wear, a practical side zipper allows the wearer to get it on and off with real ease, even when sweaty after a phase of intense activity.

Sitting between the Silex and Scultura in the Merida road range the Scultura Endurance is aimed at tarmac adventure riding. The Scultura Endurance geometry is perfectly suited to riders who want to enjoy long hours in the saddle while being comfortable and relaxed on the bike.Endowed with a modern frame design and comfort-orientated geometry the Scultura Endurance has a longer head tube creating a more upright and comfort-orientated seating position. The slacker head tube angle and slightly longer wheelbase give the bike more stability at speedTo increase frame stiffness and steering precision the Scultura Endurance uses 12mm bolt through axles and a full carbon tapered fork.There’s plenty of tyre clearance (up to 35c, or 32c if you are running mudguards), larger volume tyres can be run at lower pressures and provide more comfort even on the most pothole littered country lanes.Merida have used plenty of neat touches such as routing shifting and brake cables through the headset to declutter the cockpit. Even the seat clamp is hidden and the rear seat stay bridge can be removed if it isn’t used to mount mudguards.All Scultura Endurance are equipped with powerful hydraulic disc brakes. Calipers are mounted via the flat mount standard for a neat, flush fit. Calipers sit on top of CNC'd aluminium Disc Cooler fins which reduce operating temperatures by up to 35%.
MET Rivale (MIPS) Road HelmetThe Rivale (MIPS) Road Helmet sets a new standard for aero performance, refined levels of comfort and fit, alongside the very best in cutting-edge head-protection technology. Safety FirstThe Rivale (MIPS) Road Helmet is first and foremost, focused on protecting your head should you be unfortunate to find yourself falling off your bike. The first line of defence is the combination of the shock-absorbing EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) inner paired with a tough and durable polycarbonate shell. These are moulded seamlessly together and provide a helmet you can trust should you crash, soaking up impact forces and maintaining the integrity of the helmet. . Safety is then further enhanced via the MIPS-C2® Brain Protection System.MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.More Comfort. Improved Fit.This iteration of the Rivale has also seen an improvement to comfort levels. Getting just the right fit every time is made possible by the Safe-T Upsilon Fit System. A twist of the rear dial allows you to get the fit just how you like it. This works in tandem with the 360-degree Head belt, with vertical adjustment, to ensure no pressure points and perfect stability. Air Mesh comfort pads also ensure sweat is quickly wicked away and they're washable too, letting you keep everything fresh on every ride. Aero Efficiency OptimisedThe MET design team have honed the aero performance of the Rivale, making it better than ever, while still maintaining outstanding levels of ventilation. The NACA Vent built-in with a lower and tube-shaped profile makes the Rivale MIPS even more aerodynamic than its predecessor. The front vents are now longer and wider, enhancing airflow into the helmet. Once inside, airflow rushes along internal air channels to give a boost to your comfort and dispel sweat vapour. The front vents can also serve as sunglasses docks.Features:In-mould polycarbonate shell with EPS linerMIPS-C2® Brain Protection SystemSunglasses portsSafe-T Upsilon Fit System360-degree Head belt, Vertical adjustmentHand washable Air Mesh comfort padsAir Lite strapsAdjustable cam dividerReflective rear decals18 Vents - Internal Air ChannelingShop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy MET Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
