Merlin Ti Road Frame


Have been waiting anxiously for this classic frame to get shipped in. Merlin is one of the renown titanium frame maker in the bike industry. It is also one of the dream Ti frames i wanna own.

Some description of this beautiful handbuilt frame. Built at 1995, in Cambridge, Massachusetts before the company merged with Lightspeed . A classic Merlin frame with beautiful welds and tubing joinery, just a work of art to behold.

This particular era Merlin comes in 1" headtube and classic downtube shift mounts which take the adjustable Campy or Shimano cable blocks. The later Merlin frames provide a dedicated housing terminator mounted higher up, not allowing fine shift cable adjustments.
