For Sale: Eddy Merckx Strada OS

Hi,

Bought this last Jan.

Lovely bike - but I rode it a couple of times over the winter and broke the rear axle - within the hub - so the back wheel wobbles, and is unsafe to ride far without replacing it. Should be fairly inexpensive to replace if you've got the know-how/inclination.

3TTT bars/stem

When I got it in Jan it had a few scuffs and patches of chipped paint, and the bolt holding the seat pin in is a little rusted.

Picture is the original one from Jan - apart from axle, no changes apart from new tyres (now old, with some life in them). i.e. as seen, no pedals, no bar plugs.

I bought it for £350 - but as it needs fixing will sell for £290.

Can pick up from London or Oxford, or PM to arrange postage. Pick up preferable.

Dibs/pm
