Description
The Eddy Merckx Professional was the top model of the early Eddy Merckx brand. It was 'the bike that lives up to its name' as the first prospect of Eddy Merckx stated.
After retiring from competitions, the great Champion Eddy Merckx started setting up a bicycle manufacture. Since he wanted to build the best road bikes possible, he managed to engage one of the best frame builders of all time to help him in designing the frames and teaching other frame builders. And as it happened Ugo de Rosa - The Master welded the first frames of the Eddy Merckx Professional and helped Eddy in the first business years.
Eddy Merckx Professionals from the 1980s appeal to collectors from all around the globe indeed. This one dates back to 1985 (Serial Number P3 Z 2159) and is in impeccable New Old Stock Condition.
The original paintwork and decals are flawless and still shine as they were new.
Regarding the technical side, this classic bicycle is kept very simple. A Columbus SL tubing and a complete Campagnolo C-Record groupset in NOS condition with legendary Cobalto brakes! Simply the best of everything...
Needless to say how a NOS Merckx Professional hard to find is. Wether you are a collector, an Eddy Merckx fan or simply a love stunning bicycles with a great pedigree, here is a chance to make yourself very very happy!
