Hi, I am thinking about buying a second hand Merlin Extralight Bike. The trouble is the stickers and badge has been removed and I'm not too sure where to find the serial number. Before I buy, I would like to find out if it is really a Merlin!! Can anyone tell me where to find the serial number on a Merlin bike? The model in question is from 2000-2001. Thanks! :)

I forgot to mention...I have checked everywhere for the number (bottom bracket, etc..) and can't find it!

Drop a dime and call Merlin, beats waiting.

I've had really good experiences with merlin customer service.

Did you look inside the BB shell and headtube?

Thanks for the response lads. I haven't looke inside the BB Shell yet - it's a good idea though. I think you are right - I'll call Merlin and see....Cheers ;)
