2001 Merckx Corsa 01
Merckx Corsa 01Chromed sloping engraved crown one inch threaded fork. Chrome rear triangle. Chrome Merckx dropouts. Chrome braze -on front derailleur mount. Head tube cable guide braze-ons. Internal rear brake cable routing. 27.2 seat tube, Italian bottom bracket threading. Frame tubing is Merckx's custom spec'd lightweight Dedacci Zerouno. It is slightly oversized. The downtube and seat tube are ovalized at the bottom bracket for extra stiffness. Brake bridge and fork crown are engraved. Bottom of bottom bracket is engraved. Two sets of water bottle braze ons. Factory internal anti-corrosion frame treatment. Unlike the Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra frame, the Corsa-01 is not built with Columbus SLX tubing, but with much higher grade Eddy Merckx specific Dedacciai Sat 14.5 8mcdv6 tubing, ensuring a superb ride. Extremely light, and super strong, this tube set possess excellent fatigue characteristics.

This bike rides like a dream; extremely stable, fast and both fluid in climbing or descending. This is my go-fast club bike when I need all the help I can get...
