24'' wheel eddy merckx corsa

Posted on
  • Has anybody ever seen one of these before?
    since my son had his 24'' bianchi stolen from our garage i have been looking for a reolacement and i bought an Eddy merckx grom the bay which said it was ali, but is a steel bike labelled corsa extra. Definately a merckx, panto'd fork etc, 24'' tubs miche and 105 groupset, it's fab but i never knew they were made.
    It has a shop sticker which i'm guessing its dutch or belgian, could any one help with it's approx age?
    I'll post a pic if anyone is interested.

  • Pics please.

  • yeah pics pics pics - sounds awesome

  • sounds cool

  • Saw 2 in the window of a n unfortunately closed bike shop in Gothenburg earlier this year. Thought they looked awesome.

  • mines looks a bit newer, and a red yellow black forks, ergo's etc, ill get some pics today when he's at school..it's hidden till xmas.
    bike shop stiker says shills i think.

  • Sounds interesting (and genuine). Patrick Schils used to be the UK importer for Merckx.

  • that's it schils, written on the seat tube in sticker form. merckx panto'd forks , brake bridge, merckx dropouts, a proper little old school racer, merckx seat
    .
    i know the front wheel is not in, just pulled it out of the box for the quick piccy.

  • Which year would you guess?

  • That is superb.

  • This is all sorts of awesome!

  • So awesome

  • thanks guys, i know a full size corsa extra is normally SLX, but i have no idea what this would be

  • great !!!!

  • Wow. That is sick.

  • Just seen it mega awsome I'd have loved that as a nipper

  • Which year would you guess?

    I think it's about 1999. I've got the adult version (Black, blue and yellow)- this is basically the domo frites paint job but in red. I was watching this puppy for my own son, he's only 18 months though so a bit too young. perhaps I can have it after yours finishes with it... :)

    Oh, and mine is columbus brain

  • wow ! i have the track version MX Leader with colombus MXL ..

    anyone have any ide how much its worth for ?

  • 400-450 as a realistic, "not-ebay" pricetag
