Took the @merlinbicycles #titanium from 1989 out for a true MTB ride this weekend. Unbelievable how modern the bike rides. #joemurray geometry on this bike (a prototype before serial launch of the later Kona titanium, before the #heihei). And the @rockshox #rs1 is working awesome, adding smoothness upfront to the overall compliance of the frame.
