Getting away from the crowd isn’t easy. catalogue 2015 Eddy M e rckx C ycl s catalogue It takes courage and endurance. Because once you’ve broken away from the pack you’re on your own, fighting a long and hard battle.

When Eddy Merckx took the lead in the most memorable stage of the 1969 , he rode solo for 140 kilometers and arrived 8 minutes ahead of his contenders. He went for the long escape. And won his first Tour de France.

This epic win provided the inspiration for an amazing endurance race bike. With its slightly higher head tube and shorter top tube, the Mourenx69 is perfectly tuned to the needs of the long

distance racers. M OURENX 69 12 SANREMO76 Eddy Merckx Cycles catalogue 2015 13 Go for impressive speed

It takes great effort and hard training catalogue 2015 Eddy M e rckx C ycl s catalogue to go even faster and faster. You need to stay focused on your goal while building up physical as well as mental power.

That is precisely what Eddy Merckx did. He was driven by a desire to get better, more effective and faster. He dedicated himself to speed training and systematically pushed his boundaries. And it paid off. He rode Milan-SanRemo nine times and was the only one in history to win the race seven times.

The SanRemo76 celebrates this record number of wins. With its compact seatstays, lower head tube and longer top tube it is
