Retro Newbie
I’m interested in selling my Merlin XLM and all of its parts. I’ve had this bike for about 6 years and have put (maybe) 100 miles on it. I initially acquired it with big dreams of riding it forever, but work (in NYC, without much mountain biking) and now medical school (in Vermont! But I have no time/money) leaves the bike sitting in my bedroom unridden. I’m super strapped for cash right now and I’m interested in selling it.
I’m in Burlington, VT if anyone is local and wants to check it out.
If any of the prices are entirely too much/too little please let me know. I know muuuuuuch more about road bikes and don’t have a great gauge on mountain bike stuff, especially mountain bike stuff like this.
Finally, I may be a new seller, but I'm not dodgy. If you are interested in purchasing the bike I'm happy to exchange phone numbers, Facebook profile, etc to work out any details. I've posted my Ebay account in my profile as well as my Paceline forum account information in my profile.
If you have any questions please let me know! I'm happy to take more photographs and provide more information!
