You can't beat those early Merlin bikes. Ti with black is the way to go... I love it! :cool:

You should swap that DX headset and Shimano pedals for XC Pro ones though :oops:
 
Very nice! ;-)

Sober and clean, and though I prefer skinwalls I agree black Ritcheys fit perfectly in this particular case.
 
Clean, simple and really classy.......if that rides like it looks as it will then you must be really pleased with it........the black tyres let the frame stand out really well, I agree they suit it........
 
Thanks to all ;-)

Yes, that DX headset is not the best option (though will stay there by the moment ;-)).

Skin-wall tires always fit a classic bike, but they are hard to find in good condition, and I like riding my bikes (and so, clipless pedals are mandatory ;-))
