hey there,
been a while since i was on here, sort of need your guys help.
Have convinced the missus that it is ok to have a few bikes in the flat and now I wanna pimp my Merlin so it becomes a contender for BOTM.

At the moment its got all sort of pick and mix of goodies on it, however nothing of a thread going through.

So any suggestions is welcome, however I still wanna ride it (tough loving) so it cant become so precious that I just leave it at home.

thanks in advance and ride safe

Two words..

RING - LAY!!!

lol But seriously, when you're asking for candy, you can't get better than the Ringle gear.. I'll be posting pics in the next day or two of my Cuda outfitted with a full assortment of ruby red goodies..

i personaly wouldn't "pimp" a merlin as these frames are pieces of art anyway. build it with parts that do the frame justice without distracting from its beauty.

That'll be all in German then :? . You have to log-in the see any images. I did actually manage to create a login, hey if you've logged into one forum you can log in them all right? I still couldn't see over half the images :( . Nice looking site all the same, I just wish I could read German. :roll:
 
thanks guys for the replies... alot of food for thought, I already have some ringle, kooka, wtb and hope on it but its all bits and pieces and nothing esthetically apealling...

anyways here are some pics for those who cant register with the german site...
