Good luck Colin

Its been a while i know but over the past few months we have been so busy. I hopefully now have a little more time to get the blog on track again. I will see if we can jazz this blog up a bit its a little dull and needs a change.  Hopefully i will…

  Hi This is a pic of my Mercian audax taken today when riding on the towpaths near Hertford. The bike was done up during the winter with new wheels and groupset. Thanks John  

  Although it was a long wait as I know the firm have been very busy, it was worth it in the end. The bike can be seen in the images below. I know that you have a gallery of images but I also think it is nice for people to be able to see…

It’s taken me nearly a year to take this photo, mainly because I enjoy riding my new bike so much that I don’t ever feel like stopping to take a picture.  But you’ve done such a wonderful job I thought it deserved a photo.  So here’s my custom build Mercian during this morning’s coffee break…

  Just thought I’d drop you a line and send a picture to let you know I’m still loving my new King of Mercian bike from 2013. I’ve ridden over 3000 miles, mostly commuting and winter training and love the feel of the bike. So much that I couldn’t stand riding my old aluminium frame…

Great news the shop access road has recently been opened. Theres just a few slabs to be laid but cars can now park with ease. Originally the work was to take 6 weeks but took 8.

  Hi, I gave my frame to you to be renovated and I thought I would just send the final pictures in to you to put on your website. It is a 1964 Mercian Campionissimo with a modern twist using 700c wheels and modern tyres etc 🙂 Many thanks, James

Hi Mercian, This is a refurbished Revell Romany you made in about 1983, it has the Weinmann 605 series side-pull brakes not the cantilever arrangement you put on later bikes. I have a 1984 Romany brochure and that showed the cantilever brakes. The serial number of this cycle is PR840121. I read somewhere, probably on the…
