1990s Merlin Mountain Bike 18" MTB Shimano XTR, Ritchey, Mavic, Easton

Up for sale is a **MINTY** Merlin Titanium mountain bike from the 1990s. Recently picked this up from the original owner who was an amateur racer here in Southern California. I hate to sell it but the frame was a tad too small for me. Although the bike was raced on, the original owner meticulously took care of it and upgraded the stock components over the years. The bike has a lot "high-end" goodies from the '90s and has been garaged for the last decade or so. Frame is in excellent condition with minimal wear tear on and the finish appears to be in great shape. Overall, the bike could use a tune up and specifically, the rear XTR needs to be trued. Other than that, the components are in good operating shape and the bike shifts exceptionally well. For those interested in just the frame-I am willing to sell it separately,
Feel free to ask me any questions about the bike. Will ship via BikeFlights but also open to local pickup as well.
