I've had my Eddy Merckx for about 10 years now, and I still don't know if it has a "real" name. Is there a model name for my 1983 Merckx? Also, does anyone know the approximate retail sale price when this bike was new? (I DO NOT want a "current value" as it is not, and will not be for sale) Super Record throughout. Pantographed: stem, brake levers, large chainring, even had Eddy Merckx embossed pedal straps. I can provide all the details of the bike if anyone is interested, or if that owuld help identify a model. I've chande a few things over the years, but I kept everything I changed, so purists can calm down. Here's some pics: http://home.earthlink.net/~1983merckx/merckx1.jpg http://home.earthlink.net/~1983merckx/merckx2.jpg
