I am getting pointed towards Moots/Seven, but there seems to be a lot more "used" starters at 2,500/3000 in Litespeed/Merlin your thoughts? I have my eye on a 05 Merlin Solis with full Campy......????

IDK, Maybe they just dont sell them and want to move you into one of their brands. I have a 98 spectrum which is a extralight merlin Ti frame.. I friggin love the way it rides.. I really dont see myself ever buying another frame unless I have Tom with spectrum fit me one..
