Mooted
Got the Merlin back from Dec. He's replaced the rear shock and had a good laugh at the state of the old unit. Those spirals and rings in the pic are what remains of the old spring. It was competely stuffed. The only thing that was kddping in together was the shock housing.
Dec has installed the new spring/stancions etc.....will ride to work tomorrow and report back in.

The folks from Merlin came through. A complete rebuild kit for rear shock on the Merlin arrived in the mail yesterday. It may seem like it's taken ages to get here...but I only confirmed the order last week. I'm surprised it arrived so quickly.
I've dropped the bike and the rebuild kit off to Declan....he's going to pull everything apart and have a go at rebuilding it.
I'm bikeless at the moment....which means I'm drving to work. Hopefully not for much longer!
