I ride an Merlin Extralight on the road and an Obed on dirt. IMHO, mountain bikes are disposable; the Merlin may or may not ride slightly better but the extra $1000 is better left in your pocket. Regarding weld quality, the latest frames I've seen from Litespeed are pretty close in terms of fit and finish vs. Merlin.
