Finally got the Merckx frame built up. Wanted a midnight powder coat but painter decided on aquamarine blue without asking me!! Still, it still works.
With a mix of Campagnolo and dura ace. Spent bucks on NOS Merckx saddle and 15 quid in panto bar tape. Got some decals made and and didn't quite get the eddy logo and Italy, France maps quite aligned properly but I may move it just before I lacquer the decals.
9 speed Campy chorus shifters, mirage Chainset, wheels, front and rear mechs, with dura ace headset and 7402 calipers. The brakes have been my fav for a while so, as this will be my workhorse commuter, I decided on performance rather than aesthetics for stopping.
