So for a while I've been thinking of building a vintage build and after looking at some fancy steel frames, I had a nose at some Merlin's and were pleased to see they've finally dropped in price a bit, so decided to try and pick up a frameset. I wasn't bothered about weight as I've got some fancy carbon bikes.

Zoom on a few weeks and I picked up a 92 Merlin size 57 that is very clean with a claimed 1000 mile history.

A couple of days ago this arrived....

Re: MERLIN TITANIUM 92 BUILD

I've been hunting for weeks for a set of STI shifters in great shape and most seemed pretty smashed up really. Eventually these became available so I snapped them up and today they rocked up at the house. NOS DA 7403 Sti shifters :D :D :D :D
