I was curious as to what model of Merlin this is. I haven't seen these style of decals before.


Here is the photo bucket link.

Looks to be a merlin works cr. My fixie was based on a merlin works cr and came with the same decals.

I think it's around a 2009 based on the sideways headtube logo.
That looks a small one (Maybe too small for the rider based on that stem)
I have a Merlin CR Works it is a fantastic bike. It's the best riding and handling bike I've ever owned.

Sorry i do not. Im not familiar with the details on this modell and what if any changes were made and when. The perticular frame seem to have the same butted and shaped tubes that mine have were the tt meet the ST and also were the ST join the bb shell but i suspect all works cr have this feature.

Edit: agree with previous poster, its a great riding frame!

It is too small for the rider. Is that a CR works?

It looks like it to me and I have one. The CR was the "compact road" model and the TR was the "traditional road" model with the level TT.

They were designed by Tom Kellogg and made by ABG.
