ENDURANCE BIKE VS CYCLOCROSS FULL

The full zoot Dura Ace Di2 build includes a Zipp 303 wheelset, Deda Superleggera cockpit, and Prologo Scratch Pro Nack saddle for $12,495. The EMX-525 will be available in the US in four builds or as a frameset, and Merckx offers a customization program through its dealer network if you want to trick out your build only two color schemes are offered. The Aerofork II fork features an over sized crown to optimize steering forces, and the bike has both asymmetrical seatstays and chainstays to balance pedaling loads. Built with absurdly strong 600 GPa carbon, the claimed stiffness for the head tube is 150 NM and the bottom bracket is 215 NM. Merckx’s top of the line race bike is largely unchanged from 2014. We have details on lineup, including US models and pricing, geometry charts, lots of pictures, and a video after the break… Tying all the bikes together is what Merckx calls their four pillars: Speed, Stiffness, Stability, and Safety and a guiding vision of “Power Under Control.” The new women’s bike, the Milano72, is named for the fashion capital where he both started his winning ride in Milan-San Remo and finished his third Giro victory in 1972. The new Eeklo70, named for Merckx’s only cyclocross win of his career, is the company’s first bike offering disc brakes, and its first carbon ‘cross frameset. The new San Remo76 is a purely speed focused machine named for his ninth win at La Primavera. The endurance focused Mouren圆9, pictured above, and which we covered yesterday, is named for his 140km breakaway win into Mourenx at the 1969 Tour de France. Like the EMX-525, commemorating Merckx’s 525 professional wins, each of the new models is named for The Cannibal’s accomplishments. The four new bikes join Merckx’s pro racing machine, the EMX-525, which carries over from 2014.

UPDATED: Geometry, Release date for Eeklo70 Cyclocross BikesĮddy Merckx today released details on his company’s complete lineup for 2015, including four new models specifically targeted to pure speed, endurance riding, women, and cyclocross.
