My 97-98 MX Leader which I have since stripped of the DA7400/10 and is destined for a future rebuild. Most likely it will be resprayed in Molteni orange or Telekom livery. It will be rebuilt wiff Campy naturally.

But is it made in Belgium?

Columbus steel tubing. Ridley bikes has bought EM Cycles saving it from bankruptcy. Most surely made in Belgium.

My MX Leader was done in Molteni by Bogus in Slaapstad. It came out very well.

Do you have a Corsa Extra btw? I have been looking at one but not sure if it's worth it or better than MXL.

I don't. I have always considered the MXL to be the epitome of 1990's steel frame development before AL and Carbon started dominating and the technology stopped developing in the mainstream....

*Lance doped, we all know it. UCI cleared all his results from 2009 on, PPA just moves slowly

EDIT - he has been blanked from the 2010 race! we all moved up one! http://results.racetec.co.za/results_by_person.aspx?PID=359199
