Merckx 10th Anniversary
      04/12/04 02:40 PM (66.152.253.98)

I purchased a well-used Eddy Merckx frame that has an old Cycleart paint job (tatoo'd on the chain stay). It's a deep red with the white with gold-outlined downtube decals. The top tube has a 10th anniversary decal on it, but none of other decals have the correct 10th emblem. The previous owner couldn't confirm that this was originally a 10th anniversary model. I've written to the factory with the serial numbers to get any info they may have, but have not heard back in quite some time.

Does anyone know if the 10th anniversary model ever came in the blood red color? Maybe it's just Cycleart's addition?

I love the ride - I'm just wondering if it's worth another restoration with the proper decals.

A picture of it is on my homepage at:

Thanks.
