Merida Scultura 6000 V2 (€2,199) vs Giant TCR Advanced 1 (€2,442) — best value?
Merida Scultura 6000 V2 (2024) — €2,199 • 105 Di2 • CF3 carbon frame • Carbon seatpost • ~8.2 kg Giant TCR Advanced 1 (2024/25) — €2,442 • 105 Di2 • Advanced carbon frame • ~8.18 kg Which is the better buy in terms of pure price-to-performance? Planning to swap stock wheels with my own carbon wheelset on either one.
Note: Not sure if the 2024 Scultura V2 is spec-identical to the current 2026 model — if anyone knows, that would help.
Thanks!
