could you have a look at this same thread posted below? I posted it in both mtb and road forums and it's been shifted here by the moderator! There's a link to a picture from the 1992 merckx catalogue showing a MAX tubed corsa extra which looks the same as the one I'm negotiating for at...

Thanks for all of this. Really useful info. It's all making me think I NEED it! Last piece of the jigsaw would be to confirm dimensions/fit. Any resources on the web? Frame numbers for specific years etc, etc? Also - what was the really cool stem the motorola boys used? Was it the cinelli...

Yes. That's one of my concerns - all of the max/mxl tubed merckx' frames I've seen have the tubes as per your link. However, the earlier post showing 1992 max tubed corsa extra seems to be the other ( normal? ) way round. Mmmm.! They are great, tho' aren't they?!?!?!? :(

Wow. Looks exactly like that red corsa extra with max tubing - never heard of such a thing. So looks like it's a legitimate model, then? Any idea of price for a frame in good nick? Or complete bike with eight speed chorus mix? Where did those pics of Armstrong's MX Leader come from? Class...

Posted on the road forum, too - cheers! Looking at an eddy merckx frame. It's max tubing, red and in good nick. Here's the thing, tho' - there is no merckx logo where the seatstays meet the seatpost/binder bolt/top tube lug. Also, the decal states columbus MAX ( as it should ) but the top...

Thanks for that. That is how it appears in the photograph. Anyone have any idea about the merckx logo at the top of the seat stays? Were some produced without it? Cheers.

Looking at an eddy merckx frame. It's max tubing, red and in good nick. Here's the thing, tho' - there is no merckx logo where the seatstays meet the seatpost/binder bolt/top tube lug. Also, the decal states columbus MAX ( as it should ) but the top tube has corsa extra on it? Finally, I'm...

Mmmm. Not really, sure. Possibly 95/96? - 1 1/8th headset. Definitely had 96 judy sl`s on when I bought it from a mate, although he`d had it for a while before that. Anyone else help?

Ok. Have seen sense! £80.00 posted anyone?

So. . . . . . . .anyone know for certain if Rocky Mountain do respray or not then? Anyone had any work done by them? Gump? I reckon if anyone knows!. . . . . . .! Can I see some altitude pics? Loved the one about 1994 with different coloured seatstays. Do these ever come up for sale?

Sweet. Mine had a full deore dx group with thumbies. Upgraded forks to manitou 3`s and eventually got hope ti-glide hubs and an eight speed mech, utilising the extra hidden click on the thumbies. Changed to a Suntour XCpro chainset and an early WTB greaseguard headset. Gore-tex cables. Finally...

I`m about to get my favourite ever bike back! Well, that I`ve owned anyway. It`s a 94/95 equipe - tange prestige ultimate ultralight tubing made when rockys were rockys and Chris DeKerf welded some of the frames. I did everything from race to trailquest to commute on it and always regretted...

Cheers P20. Dekerf team st up for sale now, too. Mail me if you want some pics? Ah, sad times. Must be done tho`!

Sorry, that should read " there are already a couple of pics on here - on the forum, titled pricing advice - breezer lightning". You`re right about damage tho`. I reckon £100 posted is what I`d be looking at? Cheers.

As above, 18" frame only. 1 1/8th headtube. Dent in top tube. Does not affect structural strength of frame. Does not affect excellence of handling. Decals damaged on one side of seat tube. Pics on request. Couple already on here on the forum asking for pricing advice. Majority seemed to say...

merckx Hey, Is corsa extra still for sale? If so could you send me some more pics and ballpark suggested price, mplease? Thanks.
