15" Merlin frame + seatpost

15" Merlin frame bought on here from woldranger yonks ago.
Apparently the frame was probably built by Sardoff/Rock Lobster for Merlin back in the day & is nice air hardened Reynolds steel tubing (with an ovalised downtube), and was resprayed lime green by Bob Jacksons just before I bought it.
Paint still in very good condition, although with a few little scuffs from use & storage.
Includes Salsa seat clamp, Ringle Moby Deuce seatpost to fit, Stronglight headset & modern single-speed cranks that I was planning to remove but don't have an ISIS-drive compatible crank puller to hand.

Starting at collection only from South-east London / Central London, but I need to get rid of it so if it sticks around then will consider posting (having a clear-out because of a flood due to waterleak...).

£100.

Re:

Hi, Any chance of some better pics of frame, maybe the drop outs, etc....thanks!

(Oh, and is the head tube 1" or 1 1/8"....??)
 
More pics. Seatpost provisionally sold, so now looking for £80 collected for the frame (& you'll need a 27.0mm seatpost!)
Ritchey dropouts pictured. 1 1/8" headset.

Well, I'm near Brockley, but can meet a short cycle or train ride away (eg. New Cross, London Bridge, Lewisham, etc)
