I picked this bike up at a car boot sale for £10 - as you can see it has been ridden hard. Really just wanted the gears, brakes & levers for another bike but when I cleaned the muck off it it looked like quite a good solid frame - aluminium with no real damage other than the paint shot to bits. Now I'm thinking of it for a possible spare bike for building next winter with other bits and pieces I've got.
I don't know much about the British Merlin bikes so any help would be great. Are they any good, is it worth the effort and does anyone have any idea of the model and year (if the gears and levers are original - a very big IF given the state of the bike- it looks to be around 94/95)
