How about a custom Eddy Merckx lugged MX Leader (as used by Motorola,
etc.),
built in belgium, custom geometry and choice of paint, about a 3-4 month
wait, about 1400 from www.bikyle.com
Oh no, not the mx leader! I thought that slug was long
dead and buried where it shoudl be. At 6 lbs just for
the frame and fork it's way too heavy to ride.
Lance dispised that thing when he had to ride it for
the mid '90s spring classics.
The corny looking lug work and box crown make it look
like something out of the comic books.
I had some friends back when that had Max forks. They seemed to break with
fair frequency...
