Nice double score!

Hard to go wrong with Ritchey’s, Cooks and a Salsa Moto on a Merlin!

Says the guy with the same stashed away for his

Bet you’re itching to put it together?

itching yes! i stripped the bike yesterday and gave it a good clean! cleaned all the xtr m900 components all ready for my LBS to build her up!

hopefully the forks should be will me by the end of next week.

what seatpost are you going for?

 

[pw_pw_la]

Oh, I'm a fair ways off being ready to commit to a seatpost

(Probably an OG IRD tho, if I have things my way!)

 

[Rog]

another piece to the puzzle... finally i can build it up

Some progression on the Merlin tonight. Slowly coming together

I suppose if ever there was a year/bike perfect for M900...

And I'm not just saying this because it'll mean it's at least a little different from my own, whenever I'm able to get around to it!

Yeah, 89/90. Although still can't get that verified as it's a 700 serial.
