Eddy Merckx MX Leader 25th Anniversary 2005 (Motorola Team)

"2005 marks Eddy Merckx 25th Anniversary as well as the final year of production for the classic Eddy Merckx MX Leader. The Columbus Max Nivicrom Steel tubes are no longer being produced. Eddy Merckx only has enough tubes for 100 more frames. The Limited Edition 25th Anniversary frame will dawn the Motorola Team paint scheme. The lugged brazed frame is regarded as the most durable frame on the market. Ask any MX Leader owner about the bike and they will praise it for it's smooth, stiff, responsive ride. The MX Leader is a unique frame without equal. The MX Leader frame comes with a matching 1" chromoly fork. The MX Leader is available in 1cm increments ranging from 54-63cm."
