Why are new-old-stock Eddy Merckx steel frames downgraded ---- as frames to have any continuing value? [seems there are lesser Corsa Extra 711; not see them like in the past] As the actual name of the person/racer existed during the time of steel. Not at the time of carbon fiber. As I now found that there are carbon fiber frames of the Name. I assumed, the entire time, the Name would only exist during the time of metal; as tubing was of metal during the time of THE racer of Eddy Merckx.
