Any strong opinions on either? I know that the Merckx is
made by Litespeed, but has a different geometry and tubeset.
Both are about the same weight and price.

I would go for the Majestic because it has a much larger
down tube. Better able to resist bending. Titanium is
susceptible to bending. With titanium I would go for the
largest diameter tubes possible.

Should mention that 2004 is the last year for Merckx ti
framesets.
