: I am retiring my outdated aluminum frame bike, and searching for the best replacement. Research into the best bicycle available points to the Merlin Extralight model. Still - frame weight aside - the fact that there are various models available is somewhat confusing. What are each of these models - Extralight, Road, RSR - designed for? (The Triathalon model is self-explanatory.) Also, the Merlin brochure mentions that racks may not be used with the Extralight. Why is that? Many thanks... MG
Hi Mark! Why not go right to the "horses mouth" and contact Federica Larco @ Merlin Metalworks directly? I'm positive that Federico would be pleased to answere all your valid questions as would Matt Bracken Service Manager at Merlin. Sometimes the "obvious" solution to a problem can be easily overlooked. As a Merlin Road (1994 vintage) owner I can only trust that you will become a Merlin owner one of these days. You will never regret your choice, believe me! pje
