is that you can get the front end up easily without a weird look.
If I hadn't bought the Serotta, I'd be bidding on this one.

How's the ride on one of those mid-80s steel Merckx bikes? I have a mid-80s Torelli that is slightly heavier, but just as comfortable as my modern-day Lemond. I've been thinking about building it back up with better parts, but the frame is really scarred up, and a paintjob costs more than the frame itself is worth.
Would this Merckx frame be something you'd want to ride regularly, or even as a main bike, or would it be more just a project of love?
