Nice! Looks like a mid 90's Merlin Extralight.

Yep - original Merlin Extralight. had it for 15yrs+ now - still love riding it.
   Still unsure about 11sp ergos. Functions great, but 10sp ergos had such a classic shape.

experimental pizza night
 I forgot the onions and I forgot I was cooking a pizza in the broiler.  [

the larger horn on the 11 speed...
keeps your hands from slipping off on big bumps...90% of the time its irrelevant but potholes and bumps can really up end an outing.
Love my 10 speed ergos but think the 11 speed is an improvement Still unsure about 11sp ergos. Functions great, but 10sp ergos had such a classic shape.

Thanks to @doomridesout I picked up a leather saddle. Preliminary shakedown ride was promising..wondering if anyone has any advice with this saddle? Nose up/down/level?

Just joined the forum because there seems to be a lot of good Serotta info here. Currently in the stand: purple CSI. Swapping the old Ultegra triple groupset, stem, bars, and seatpost for a modern-ish 1x setup for everyday riding around here. Can't wait to get it back on the road.

Working on a commuter for my daughter. She has a nine mile daily ride on the paved MUP. She's been riding an old 87 Diamondback mtb.
I'm hopeful that she'll like this. I wanted to use gray or silver housing, but I can't find any local. What say you about black, which I already have?

Last year I got my HS jr. off her heavy midrange hardtail and onto a alum/carbon Sirrus. We dropped about 7 lbs out of her setup. It made a HUGE difference to her ability to use the bike in general. So much easier to ride, wheel it around, park, load, etc. She feels more efficient and rides faster. It's a better suited bike for her needs now and thus it is more enticing for her to ride.
