Chris Willemse Posted June 15, 2016 Share This is myown Eddy Merckx which I used for many years. Unfortunatly I nearly lost it one evening after Johny Koen had a tv interview with me for one of his programs. I left it outside under the Lapa which burned down later that evening. Luckily for me the EM was not completely destroyed. I am not repairing it but leave it as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry_W Posted June 15, 2016 Share 006.jpg This Lejeune is actually an Peugeot 531 road bike that will soon be restored in its original colours. Fitted with campac. Take note already in the 70"s the cyclist were weight conscious. The seat pillar was drilled full of holes , front blade removed and no front changer and lever. Fantastic Bikes, thanks for sharing.What is the story behind this bike? How did it end up painted as a Lejeune? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Willemse Posted June 15, 2016 Share Fantastic Bikes, thanks for sharing.What is the story behind this bike?
