Merlin XLM ..Slightly better photos on slideshow now

[Harryburgundy]

Sorry for the multiple posts....but just come back from the kitchen...again...very excited
Not one rusted or corroded fastener.....original grease on the chain..no cable rub...decals totally intact....even the Shimano rings bolts are shiny new....
Was going to ride it to work tomorrow....but can't possibly ride it until the summer...it's really a museum piece .... I think it will take pride of place in my lounge for a while

jealous and not jealous at the same time. love to own one, but that one would have never fit me!

Brooks Ti Swift

Erm, thats a problem for me too....thought I might get away with 18.75, but its too big for me Looks like Merlin measure centre to centre, centre to top on this is about 20.75.....damn!
