So a couple of weeks ago my very first Merckx arrived. Not the 7/11 or Motorola version that are popular, but one that I wanted more, a Domo Farm Frites frameset. Especially so given that it's a steel version, not the Scandium version that's known for denting easily.
Fitted with Campagnolo Mirage and a Veloce chainset, this will be my first Campag equipped bike.
So it's now stripped, I'm tidying up the paintwork that was damaged in transit and looking to upgrade to Chorus.
Now looking for a nice seatpost, 27.2, 300mm and silver matching blue bar tape and maybe a Merckx saddle if there is such a thing and tyres to match, although I have some black alternatives to the blue I'd like.
Some photos for you
