Beautiful geared Mercian in 'like new' condition. Recently fully rennovated and resprayed by Mercian and built up with NOS components at considerable cost. Since then it has been used only a handful of times.
Sizing:
ST: 50.5cm c-c 52.5cm c-t
TT: 53cm c-c
A first rate Mercian frame built from Reynolds 531 in 1985 (frame number 50985) with fancy cutout lugs, engraving, Campagnolo dropouts and Cinelli investment cast BB. Refurbished at Mercian, sprayed in a metallic purple / silver which has a kind of glittery appearance, with gorgeous two tone lug lining.
Components:
Campagnolo Super Record brake calipers
Campagnolo Super Record brake levers and hoods
Campagnolo Super Record rear derailleur
Campagnolo Super Record front derailleur
Campagnolo Super Record downtube shifters
Campagnolo Super Record hubs on Mavic MA40 clinchers
Campagnolo skewers
Stronglight 100lx cranks
MKS Sylvan pedals
Cinelli 1A stem
Cinelli Campione del mondo bars
Fizik bar tape
Selle italia Turbo saddle
The saddle was not new so shows some signs of wear. The gum hoods are soft and supple but have two nicks in them. There is a few small marks on the right hand seatstay.
The rest of the parts, apart from a couple of scratches here and there are in NOS condition.
