Strengths: Translation of all energy into forward movement. It flies up hills.Weaknesses: None.Bottom Line: My Merlin Camena is my bike with wings. After riding an aluminum/carbon Fuji, this bike is amazing. Same weight as the Fuji, but absolutely no energy lost to road vibes. I've used it for touring and doing tris. I got a great deal because Bike Authority had had it in inventory for a while ad was having a sale on al ti bikes. The bike was stock with the exception of seat, crank and wheels. I have it fitted with a 50/34 compact double. They also did a great fit.
Favorite Ride: Johnstown to Granville
Price Paid:
$2800.00
Purchased At: Bike Authority
Bike Setup: Ultegra group with a Cane Creek headset and FSA Gossamer 50/34 compact double. Krysirium Elite wheels.

Strengths: very nicely made. responsive. carbon rear stays absorb road shock.Weaknesses: a tad priceyBottom Line: a lovely ride. made for a woman's body dimensions. beautiful titanium frame. this year's ultegra grouppo is OK.... improved over last year. I ride on chip and seal a bit and the road shock is sucked up by the carbon stays nicely. very light after my steel LeMond.
