: : I am interested in the future of Merlin with Hyde and if quality standards will be upheld. But in the event that they are not, I am still reassured that the Merlin that I bought was the best ti frame of the time. The future I guess will determine wether Merlin will have the same image and following as it has enjoyed over the years. If not there will always be small inovative companies springing up to provide unique and quality products. But I would not sign off Merlin yet. As they have been loyal to quality and service so far, maybe we should be loyal to Merlin giving benefit of the doubt until proven wrong. In other words "don't worry be happy"

Marc, I agree with you. I think most people have a problem with their nice little bike company taken over by the big conglomerate. I will wait and see and withhold judgement. I have a Merlin Road since 1993 and I still love it, and I hope the support will always be there. I still feel it was one of the best decisions I made.
Gary.
