Lung,
You've got your Merlin posted all over BF, but I never get tired of looking at it. Its one of the nicest looking builds I've seen ever. It's also quite literally exactly the kind of build I'm looking at for my hopefully attainable dream bike. Nice job!

Scatantte CFR Team Dura Ace
After going though so many pages of beautiful bikes, I am almost embarrased to put my bike here, but here it is.
I have already upgraded the brake calipers to Dura Ace as the stock were Textro R750's and I did not like thier performance. The Dura Ace are a world apart. 400 miles and I am very happy with the bike. The 50cm frame is perfect for my size, 5'8" as a smaller frame is stronger and lighter. 16.4 lbs with pedals.

Err, are your handlebars supposed to be tilted down *that* low? That looks tilted really far...

Awesome! I have the same bike just the SRAM version. I love mine as well. How is the Control Tech crank working for you?
