    Dura ace - real nice!! - Bet she set you back a pretty penny, but i'm sure its worth it..

    I was originally looking for another bike to use to commute to work in london with.. however i saw a merak in a local bike shop and just fell in love! - it's more than i really wanted to spend, but my hearts set on one now, so if anything i'm looking for someone to justify my spend for me : P

    I will then - buy it, it'll be fantastic and worth every penny!!

    Only half in jest. I was the same with a R838 a couple of years ago. Have never once regretted buying it.
