The mercian is a really heart wrencher... I've been toying with the thought of selling it for a while as it's just gathering dust, lot of dust! I have the original build sheet and the original receipt somewhere, but the seat tube is around 57cm ctc (60cm ctt), top tube 55 or 55.5 ctc I guess what you would call tall and compact. The paint around the seat tube has been touched up as the original owner didn't grease the post 🙄 But if I sell it it will be around the £275 mark. It's black, with silver decals, full Reynolds 725os build, shifter lugs in the down tube, chrome dropouts in the forks and frame, chrome crown in the matching forks, I should add, it's 1-1/8" head tube with matching Mercian steel forks.
Excuse the photos, I'll clean the dust off and get some better pictures up of it on Wednesday.
The frame set new was £1095, I think the frame on its own now retails for £1200. So I think £275 for the frame an fork in it current condition is pretty good.

Can I little holes in the rear dropout for a Portacatena?
-

A Portacatena goes in the seat stay, not the dropout. Otherwise it will foul the cassette and chain.

The only items that are left are the Veloce brake calliper and the Mercian, which to be honest I haven't really tried to sell. I'll dig the paperwork out from Mercian and ping it to interested parties.
I am happy to to post the Mercian and of the top of my head it was build 2009
Cheers Andy
