Hey
Here is my Merlin that's to be restored. Think its early 1970s, perhaps someone could confirm. Its Reynolds 531c throughout and shod in Campagnolo Centaur 10-speed except for the brake calipers which are Mr Controls (anyone have experience with these?) and the front hub which is a Schmidt K179 Dynohub. Where would the serial number be on such frames? I've checked the bottom bracket shell and cant see anything unless its hidden underneath the cable guide.
The frame itself is solid but does have some surface rust on the cable guides on the top tube, around the bottom bracket shell and around the drainage hole on the driveside chainstay.
Planning on sending it back to Bob Jackson to have a respray and then, once rebuilt, use it for Audaxing.
