Finally got round to posting something on a forum after calling by brother sad for doing the same with his MX5.
When I last checked this site there was no Merlin listing.
I've done cars along time ago, pre www, now well into bikes and finally got my Merlin as a 40th, so here it is. (see gallery)
Would appreciate any discussion of handling, characteristics, how to clean brushed Ti - I use baby wipes then a dry cloth to get the streaks off before they dry.
Campag, (I'm English) so Campy doesn't sound right, 10 speed was also a must not ShimaNo as were the Mavic SLs.
The latest change is an Arionne saddle that has proved much more comfortable

I've found the best way to clean my Ti bikes is to use Windex (or similar product) and follow up with Lemon Pledge. Any spray furniture polish will work, but I prefer that oh-so-fresh-smell that Lemon Pledge offers  Plus no streaks and it provides for easier cleaning later.

Plain old mild dishwashing soap and water followed up with Pedro's Bikelust or Lemon Pledge works great.

Windex is a brand name window cleaning spray, very common in the U.S. (http://www.windexglasscleaner.com/original.asp) I believe it's a worldwide brand. It's made by the SC Johnson Co. Where are you located?
