Tempting.....if it was a Paul Sadoff.
Don't these come up with a fairly short top tube.

Never understood why these frames get put down in comparison to the handbuilt version. Surely they are still cracking frames for the money and in 853? Second to that I am sure Merlin wouldn't have a licence to build them if they were no good, reputations and all that. Have you seen the price of a handbuilt Lobster from the states!!!!!!

The finish on my alloy 'Merlin' Rock Lobster was a bit crap TBH, but it was cheap...
I love the ride of my Genesis 853, dare I say it is as much fun as my Hei Hei was?
For the money you can't go wrong with a frame like this, nice colour too.
EDIT: I've got the specs for all Merlin frames in a document somewhere, if you want them?
