1993 MERLIN Titanium retro MTB build-up thread with much Syncros and Ringlé

Thank you Lugtenburg! I will check that again as well. Maybe my frame is a little bit sqeezed there from the previous owner and now its 27.0 instead of 27.2. I will of course fix that and not ride a 27.0 in a frame that is supposed to be 27.2.

Besides the Merlin I have a 97 Litespeed that's supposed to be 27.2 too but the original 27.2 Litespeed seatpost was too tight. I needed to change the seatpost shim that was inside the tube, it was not easy but not too hard either. Maybe a previous owner changed it or maybe the shim got a little bit deformed by the time and use.
