Eddy Merckx catalogue / folder 1993
Sagas continued...
Title slightly modified, maybe that's enough ...
- The catalog was probably created in September 1992 and shows what you could buy in EMC at the time (as usual - not everything)
- The first carbon frame, Donnay, appears; built in Couvin from autumn 1991 to autumn 1992 by people trained by EMC... Then Donnay went bankrupt again and the next Eddy Merckx carbon frame appeared after 10 years
- Mx Leader ver.1 and ver.2 or 3 built only in 1992 is shown
- on the frame you can see both versions of the stickers: the early bar "belgium handmade + 2 Belgian flags and the later round "12 stars on a blue background". - the change probably occurred in spring 1992
- the good tradition of showing "painting codes" has been maintained
- The options (including my favorite FF) and... not a word about geometry, Reynolds 531 and Century
