I just bought this Eddy Merckx, and I'm trying to identify it. It's obviously a respray, and a bad one at that. Looking through old catalogues, I'd guess it was a 1990 model, based on the look of the seatstays. The dropouts say "Eddy Merckx", the brake bridge does as well + it's got a "Silva" stamped underneath. It's got a tab for a racenumber and internal cabling for the rear brake. There's a hint of a serial number on the bottom bracket, but it's not readable (yet). It came with a Fondriest Dedacciai Optimal fork, which is probably not the original one...
