The current owner, who bought the bike directly from Eddy Merckx in the late '70ies, recieved confirmation from Mr Eddy Merckx about the
authenticity of the frame. Contact with Mr De Rosa learned that this bike
can be dated in 1977. All sizes and dimensions were measured by Mr. Ludwig Wynants who certified another Merckx bike in de Koers! museum.They proved to match perfectly with the certified bicycles of Eddy Merckx.
Many thanks to Mr. Ludwig Wynants.
