I picked up a Concorde 933 last night, struggling to find out much about it online, figured someone here might know more...

It looks like this :

Paint is a kind of pearlescent blue with pink :shock: but actually doesn't look too bad...

It has 'Made by Merida' on the frame, as far as I can gather they're a Taiwanese crowd, all I can see online about Concorde relates to the earlier Italian-made steel stuff, which seems decent kit...

It's got an odd Coda/Ritchey stem and headset set-up :

Steel forks too, for some reason, but they seem original....

Campag Avanti cranks and rings, Shimano front and rear mechs, Shimano 500 Ex Exage brakes, and Gipiemme T-Quattro rims.

It didn't cost too much ( more than I usually pay for Bumtree finds though..) so all good I guess, but I'd like to hear from anyone who knows any more about these later Concordes :)

Cheers, and sorry about the shoddy photos, snatched at dusk with a compact :roll:
