Alex,
It's the best Road Bike I ever rode, it is made by Merlin and finished by Spectrum. I got mine from Tom Kellogg in 1988 and the only thing it needs is to be refinish (in ten year a new paint job is due). I would like to try a Super Custom Lightwight - you see my frame is 61cm and the lightwight was not made back then.
I ride TT and I have the bike set up for that. I will be sending Tom some photos just as soon as I get then back from the lab. You can check them out on Tom's site.
