Merlin Titanium 1993 (serial 9266)

[Retrobike93]

Decided to purchase my forth Merlin Titanium frame, my second 1993 frame, as I missed my last one so so much, at the time I wanted the money for a campervan conversion, so let it go for good money.

So far …..
Merlin Ti frame 93
Flite Ti tan leather seat
Syncros titanium seat post
Ringle titanium skewers/ qr
Mavic ceramic laced on Xtr m900 hubs ( want to replace with king hubs)
Michelin Wildgripper Sport Retro NOS
Cooks racing soon to be single ring
Royce titanium bb
Moots titanium h/bar
King titanium cage
Litespeed tuff neck stem ( gonna swap out once I’ve found quill with rise)
Paul Love leavers

My idea is to go single speed with a Paul Love Melvin chain Tensioner so I can use regular riding with my daughter on gravel and lanes…..basically im wanting to build something different too.
I do have an issue with what ridged fork to use .. syncros powerlite or IRD experdition …. Thoughts on that one guys?? I’ve not ridden a bike with them on ..
