Merckx Serial# Database pre 80s?
 

I am having trouble finding pre 80s serial #s. The more searching I do, the more I believe I do not have a Merckx. But a nice bike nonetheless. Does the # HTR320 strike a familiarity with any other manufacturer?

There are no pre-80's Merckx built bikes. Falcons and Kessels, yes, Eddy built, no.

Yes but there were quite a number of manufacturers who licensed the Merckx name in the 1970s or those who built for the Team or built Team replicas...

It would be a good idea to make a list – I'll start:

Falcon UK
Kessels Belgium
Kalkoff Germany
De Rosa Italy not normally numbered
Colnago Italy not normally numbered
Velo Sport Bologna Italy
Miyata? Japan
???? France
