poo on that....but yeah they can get sicker, just stupid crazy things they messed around w/ for themselves to see if it would work or not. you should see the welder's (former merlin employee) ULTRA butted XLM. the thing makes no sense how light the frame is NO SENSE.Originally posted by JMAC
I don't know it doesn't get much sickerto bad my next bike i hope to get from a sponser next year hopefully dual suspension.
:the merlins aren't the quality they were at one point in time....Originally posted by JMAC
Merlin are awsome to i love them i'm starting to fall in love with all the exotic materials. Right now i want either a TREK fuel 100 full carbon frameor a 9.8 Elite or a merlin or an IF TI deluxe.
well they were bought out by the holding company that owns litespeed and moved all their equpiment from boston to tennessee. the guys who used to work at merlin as welders (among doing many other things such as mill work...) are now either at IF, Seven, and Serotta. the weld quality has gone down so has things like alignment and tube quality. the interbike the year after litespeed bought them out and moved them down they saved their show bikes from the year before and used em for that year. not only could they spot their own welds and what not but the serial #'s were the same
Well i wouldn't complain if i had a litespeed or a merlinOriginally posted by indieboy

Almost for certian i can't go to Mt.Snow because the weekend before i'm doing a 200km race and than i would leave like a couple days later and i have exams all those days which sucks. Damn crappy Norba scheduling:devil: Anyways i'll be racing at Sea Otter next year thats for sure i hope
Im hoping to get one at the end of next season. It will be a nice B-day present.

Hey indieboy,
Is there any good IF porn sites on the web somewhere? Or anywhere I can see all these sick IF's that go out? I know they're out there, but I just can't find them!

i've got pics of a few of some of their own personal bikes that they posted on the MTBR SS pic part, just have to kinda rumage through all of it. i'm sure if you do a google search or something, there's bound to be something that comes up. i'll look for some more in a minute 
They don't make mountain bikes but these guys make works of art. I'd be afraid to scratch one.
