Hello all, just popping in to say hello. I've spent most of my time on another internet message board, but have recently been turned on to this fantastic site.

i've been in the market for a Ti bike for the last few months, and although i really wanted a serotta, happenstance bumbled me onto a nice used Merlin, which i recently picked up for a great price:

i'm in the process of building it up now (if anyone has any campy 10-sp parts they want to sell, let me know, i need EVERYTHING).

i like to do lots of road riding, and i hope the Merlin will be my "all day" bike.

hope to get more involved over here, you seem like a great bunch.

ahh, check them out! the one's on my bianchi are deep section alu clinchers. if i'm not mistaken, they are the deepest alloy clincher on the market. a small outfit out of singapore makes them, they are all hand built and some of the best quality i've come across. they're tough as nails and plenty aero.

i like them because they are alloy, and although i dont race like an aero wheel without the liability of carbon for daily riding, i highly recommend them. they totally transformed the ride of my bianchi.

You may have already been over here, but here's a link to the Serotta Classifieds. Great stuff shows up there all the time.

I'm sure it has something to do with evolution or global warming... :crap:

Just kidding :p

Welcome. :beer:

Now, no one let this guy in the same room with MadRocketscientist. :no: I think we'd be in for a real meltdown if these two got their heads together. ;)

+1 - What are you angry about? No Serotta? Yes, that would do it.
