Hi! Im new at this forum and in general to fancy pancy/retro road bikes. I know a decent amount surrounding bikes but i have som problems with this case.
I have to possibility to buy the Eddy Merckx UMX-S bike for approximately 375 pound/481 Euros. My question is then, as i have read people on the internet have stated that they dont like that the bike comes with eccentric BB, what does this mean and is it that bad? And if it is, is it possibly to change. Because I really like the frame and because i live in Sweden its hard to get a really good frame up here for under 175/200 pounds.
And btw, is there anything i should know before buying this bike?
Ty for your help/ Marcus
