Re: Re:

Is it the one from US under eBay item number 202018374870 ?

Some nice tan walls, ODI or Ritchey grips and a Flite or Turbo saddle and she'll be stunning

That's the one
(Advert said 1990, which is clearly wrong due to the curvy stays, and was confirmed when I got him to send me the serial number).
Offered and agreed a price and it arrived in a week.

Re:

Hi, I was pleased to come across this site
I have three Merlins, all from the early 2000s - Magia and Agilis road bikes and an Oreas hardtail. So I am a bit of a fan. Does anyone have any experience with new range, they have branched out into some of the new areas like gravel and adventure bikes?
I'll try to post some pics once I work out how.

Re:

Just picked up a lovely magia frame on ebay the seller described it as having a hairline crack on the toptube but on close inspection it just looks like a tiny deep scratch will get it checked out, got it for a few hundred quid so worth the gamble,it will join my merlin mountain from 1996 and Merlin road from I think 94.
