Ozzie NL Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 Hmm, wonder how long Ridley will keep Merckx brand going. Not sure I would buy an Eddy knowing this
Christie Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 I wonder if the brand will keep fading away? I love mine, but their newer bikes lacked something - perhaps it was Eddy's gravitas that was missing.
Cav' Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 I think it's good news. Always been a Merckx fan and it would've been a pity if the brand folded. And yes I agree it lost its exclusivity years ago.
eddy Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 I think the Team SC was the last great bike they built. Won Paris-Roubaix, TdeF polka dot jersey and a break away stage in the same year.....
Shebeen Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 I'm guessing that could be like Trek sort of keeping the Gary Fisher brand their lineup
