Vincenzo Nibali's Custom Merida Reacto

Jon took a closer look at the Merida Reacto of Italian GC contender Vincenzo Nibali. A previous winner of all three Grand Tours, Nibali skipped his home race the Giro this year for a focused campaign at the Tour de France. Will this be the bike that the Shark of Messina uses to claim the yellow jersey?
