Yes - I believe the Merckx TI frames were built by Litespeed. I remember reading a review of one of the Merckx AX bikes and it received a very good review (but not brilliant). With the Durace ensemble it should be a top quality riding bicycle.
The other thing to take into consideration is the MERCKX name on the frame; I'd love to have one.
