Recently-ish I bought an Eddy Merckx Mx Leader - Thanks again @sla30 !!!
Had been searching for quite a while, lusting over peoples past builds and finally found one that fit and was red! Have secretly always wanted a snazzy red merckx so hopefully its snazzy when its fully built.
Currently im trying to decide groupset and wheelset.
It Came with campag 8 speed and campag wheels but Im also thinking maybe going more modern. Currently have ultegra on my ritchey which i could switch over or I have my eye on modern-ish campag chorus and zondas but they would require a good bit of extra moneys.
Decisions Decisions!?!
Im half thinking of building it up as I recieved it (campag 8speed), dialing in the fit and changing to modern parts Later. Atleast then the merckx will get ridden and not sit gathering dust.
Below is a photo of how its sits at the moment. Ill try keep the photos and updates coming!
