Riding upright (could be) is a blast! This bike is very heavy (compared to my other bikes) but I love the responsiveness of the pure aggressive track geometry. Very steep angles. Sublime.

This is probably my favorite mercier ever! this would be the perfect chill bike, grab groceries bike, beer run bike, sunday afternoon bike. im glad to see somebody not scared to invest into this frame, bc when done correctly it blows other frames out of the water.

Upright bars rock!

Submitted by interestor on 01/30/2008.

I put together a roadster previously. Now I run those bars on my 26" wheel NYC street bike. I can literally carry a big box, and groceries are easy. I can still go fast, when I duck down and hang on to the flat section. Viva practicality.

Yeah that first photo is probably one of my favorites I have seen on the nets so far. Well done, the bike looks beautiful.

Camera.

Submitted by Hrrundel on 09/18/2006.

Camera is a simple Casio EX-P600. I used to have Laica (and like the feel of the 35mm film), but future is in the digits.

Thanks!

Thanks for your comment. This is my dream come true. Always wanted a fixed gear promenade bicycle. Mercier is a perfect candidate for it: bb high off the grown (I tend to lean bike radically on turns), mudguard mounts, aggressive responsive track geometry, low cost ($ 349USD delivered), and of course beautiful black finish gives the whole bike desired ala France appearance.
