Ozzie NL Posted June 23, 2017 Share Hmm, wonder how long Ridley will keep Merckx brand going. Not sure I would buy an Eddy knowing this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted June 23, 2017 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cav' Posted June 23, 2017 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddy Posted June 23, 2017 Share 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..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted June 24, 2017 Share I'm guessing that could be like Trek sort of keeping the Gary Fisher brand their lineup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
