Circumstances have forced me to sell this beauty. I'd love to build it and ride, but I have to n-1 in a hurry.
Specs can be seen at
http://www.merciancycles.co.uk/files...2920-1522m.jpg. The catalog scan was from 1981, but models remained unchanged through 1986. This frame had a set of water bottle bosses added at the factory.
As you can see in the photos, the paint is getting thin in spots. There's also a small spot of rub on the chainstay. I'd say it's a nice 10 footer though, especially with an OA bath and waxing.
The dropouts were professionally spread to 130mm and aligned. The frame measures 56cm seat tube c-t, 56cm top tube. Headset is not included. Asking $200 + actual shipping (paypal gift preferred).
