Questionable merckx

Anyone seen seat tube decals like this on a Merckx before?

Didn't think so, but wanted to be sure. It's about to end on eBay if anyone is curious.

I'm far from a Merckx expert but I don't recall ever seeing those concave seat stays on a Merckx either.

Likely a Colner Merckx, or other licensed model. Not made in Merckx factory.

Bikes: too many sparkly Italians, some sweet Americans and a couple interesting Japanese

I suspect it isa little too special.

It might be worth looking into. I can't make out the head badge on my phone. But, it's full campy, decent whatever frame. It didn't sell at $399 and its resisted.
