I can honestly say in all of the occasions and there were many that I saw Eddy Merckx race I never ever saw him ride anything other than small flange hubs. I saw him ride in Faema, Molteni and Fiat colours and every time he was on small flange hubs. In fact the only time I saw him on large flange hubs was on the 6 Day circuit at Ghent when he was teamed up with Patrick. He possibly rode large flange in his early career with Peugeot?
