Our Mission 9000 features our newly created CF4 Mission frame with race-focused geometry that doesn&#8217;t Compromise on control when your next gravel race throws in a washboard descent for good measure. Equipped with the finest gravel racing Components, including the latest 13-speed SRAM groupset &amp; Power meter, a Merida one-piece carbon cockpit and a race-ready Zipp carbon wheelset, the Mission 9000 feels at home on any surface, gravel or otherwise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text_2\">\n<p>Our new Mission truly embodies its \u2018fast on any surface\u2019 intentions. It&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>From fast-paced gravel races to tarmac-based chaingang outings, the Mission delivers. Up to 40\u2009mm tyre clearance offers scope for wider gravel racing tyres or large volume road tyres, and its low weight (Mission 10K is around 7.6\u2009kg) makes it fly up the hills.<\/p>\n<p>The Mission\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>MISSION 9000 is a &#8220;stiff, nimble, grin-inducing all-terrain bike&#8221; in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.merida-bikes.com\/en-gb\/news\/detail\/1768\/MISSION+9000+is+a+%22stiff%2C+nimble%2C+grin-inducing+all-terrain+bike%22+in+9%2F10+road.cc+review\">9\/10 road.cc review<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Specifications<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"100\" data-end=\"127\"><strong data-start=\"100\" data-end=\"110\">frame:<\/strong> MISSION CF4 II<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"128\" data-end=\"237\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1saegkq\" data-start=\"128\" data-end=\"148\">material: carbon<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"m85y1i\" data-start=\"149\" data-end=\"169\">700x40C max.
