This is sadly not getting used and I need the space so it's got to go.

Consists of 8spd Ergos, Chainset, F&R mechs. BB is a Campagnolo square taper 115mm.
Wheels are Campagnolo Athena on Mavic MA40 with a 13-26 8speed Record Cassette. As you can see rims are practically unused. Complete with Veloflex Master 25 tyres.

Re: Merckx Corsa Extra 58cm

Thanks guys.

Some bikes look better in photos than in the flesh. I think this one looks even better in person. If I could hang it on the wall just to look at it I would!
 
Re: Merckx Corsa Extra 58cm

I'm not er merckx fan, but this one must be one of eddy's best paint jobs ever it's beautifull.
Hope you find a seller soon.
 
Re: Merckx Corsa Extra 58cm

Sad to see this up for sale mate.
Needs must I suppose and if it's not getting used then there are other things that investment could be used for.
Still, I know you put a lot into it. This is a very good price and you should move it no problems at this.
Hope all's well down with you and the family, we need to catch up, it's been too long :)

Cheers Jamie. Yeah, it's a shame but I'm exclusively off-road with my cycling these days and this just isn't getting used. Sad 'cos it's the most beautiful bike I've ever owned!
Need to get together for a ride again soon man. Keep looking for opportunities to get up to your neck of the woods. Not been that far north for a while! :cry:
