Description
Eddy Merckx 59cm - PreownedEddy Merckx bikes were as legendary as their namesake for high quality construction and unrivaled performance. This is an early Professional model that is constructed out of Columbus tubing (either SL or SP). The serial number dates this bike as produced between the 1981-1984 model years.
This specific model is a size 59cm (see geometry below). Its built up with a mix of Campagnolo Nuovo Record and Shimano components and Alex R450 wheelset. The bike is in good structural shape but does have notable cosmetic marks, including scuffs on the stays, fork, and top tube, as well as some surface rust and a missing cable guide on the top tube. (see photos). The components are all in working shape but do show some wear and marks. Due to being in storage the bike will probably need some tuning up before riding. All and all a hard to find steel classic ready for display or more miles!
