Next. Merlin mountain bike frame of unknown vintage. The on-line Merlin serial number lists are unclear on this, but this is likely an 89/90 frame. Here’s some basic information on the frame:
Serial number: 1812
Head tube length: 6.5″
Seat tube: 19″ center to center, 20.5″ center to top and a 27.2 seat post will fit
Top tube: 23″ center to center
The frame is designed for a 1″ steerer tube fork and probably rigid. At the time, this frame likely would have come with a Ritchey Logic fork.
The bottom bracket is a non-grease guard style and appears to have new bearings. The axle is roughly 120mm.
Overall condition is pretty good. The decals have pretty much worn off the frame. There is some evidence of chain suck, but no bad gouges. Normal wear and tear. The pictures posted show the condition pretty clearly. This frame is sold as-is with no returns. Please ask questions if you have them or click on the photos for larger resolution pictures with more detail.
