Merckx Majestic or Litespeed Classic?

[Foggypeake]

Any strong thoughts on either?

It's the rider who makes the frame and components go fast,
not the choice of frame.

If the frame induces you, compels you to go out and train
then it's the frame.

Litespeeds are nice but Eddy knows what makes bikes go fast.

That's what I used to think Ken. Ride an Eddy.

The majestic is built by litespeed. They have pretty close to the same geometry. I think the warrantee is better on the litespeed, lifetime. Also, Merckx will just send the frame to litespeed for service anyways, so you'll probably get quicker repair service if you buy the litespeed.
