For Sale: 59 cm Eddy Merckx frame

I'm selling a 59 cm Eddy Merchx frame and forks. I bought it to take it on as a second project but don't feel i can do it justice with my current situation.

I'm going to take offers via email to hsmyles@gmail.com and it will go to the highest offer.

Photos of the bike can be found at

If you have any further questions i will do my best to answer them.

I work in clerkenwell and live in kent so i'm happy to meet for delivery within reason.

Cheers

I want I want I want, I cant have....

whats the top tube length?

whats the top tube length?

Pending the tt measurement I might have to buy this if I can...

Is the Fuji Royale for sale?

..it looks like a Falcon Merckx to me - quite old!
Check serial number online to verify.
Good practise anyway..

Yeah i did some research before hand and it is a 1970's Falcon Merckx....but its still a little cracker!!

Wasn't sure where to measure the TT to and from so i took three measurements;

Centre of Seat tube - Centre of Head tube = 53 cm
Outside edge of Seat tube - Outside of Head tube = 59 cm
Inside edge of Seat tube - Inside of Head tube = 56 cm.

Hope this helps!!

I'm afraid the Fuji Royale is not for sale as it is currently at mercian having a respray and hence why i cant really afford the second project!!! But hey it will be worth!! Only another 3 weeks to wait!!

Ackit and Jonlubi if you are still interest after the TT measurement send me your offers via email.

Cheers

that doesnt make sense

surely:
outside to outside = largest distance
centre to centre = middle distance
inside to inside = smallest distance

presuming that the back edge of the seat tube and leading edge of head tube are defined as outside ?

Sorry my bad, in the space between the garage and my laptop the cold mixed them up in my head!!

So to confirm
Inside edge of Seat tube - Inside of Head tube = 53 cm.
Centre of Seat tube - Centre of Head tube = 56 cm
Outside edge of Seat tube - Outside of Head tube = 59 cm

Sorry for the confusion and thanks pilky for noticing!!

P.

Hello

I have just joined as I want to advertise my Dolan track bike/fixed. I am sorry to jump onto this thread but I have to post 5 times before I can post and my bike is a similar size to this Merckx so might appeal to similar people, on reflection this is probably not the case because although Dolan makes good bikes his name is not in the same league as Merckx!

you're not going to make any friends on here acting like that.

HIJACKED!!!

Last chance to make any offers before it is unleashed on all the fashionixter's out there scouring eBay!!

Apologies Hugo. It was early morning when I posted and wasn't thinking...

Hope you sell yours.

Paul74 at least you were selling a Merchx, i have no problem with that. I was really pointing the finger at tomtom!!

Oh well thanks anyway!
