That is real nice. If I had the money I'd be bidding on that. Luckily for you, I don't.
note it is a big frame, also he bought it off ebay for £110 recently ;)

well saying that the frame above should fit, but as mentioned it is a compact frame with a slope, also be aware that it will more than likely be running tubs ;)

Hi cheers dog i tried a specialized 54 & 56 at the weekend,and the 56 was great 54 felt a little squashed,just a little put off by all the anti specialized post ;-)..

Is the vitus a fair prize? My other concern was my weight i'm 90kg fit but big..edit are the newer vitus still bonded ?

it was at £120 buy it now for 10 days, no-one bought. then advertised at £110 and went in a few days. not that many big orange mercian road bikes around. i'm sure if you dig through here some-one posted it ;)

don't mercian do re-sprays/enamel etc? if they do, why'd the guy get a mercian re-enameled at bob jackson? seems slightly illogical to me.

well according to sheldon the Bead Seat Diameter of a 650c is 571mm, which is pretty close to 57cm, so i guess it is a 650c
