Eddy Merckx leader fork

[frostie]

Hi people, have a Merckx mxl fork. Any idea what achieved price I may expect . Dismissed the ludicrous prices asked on the bay. Thank you

Depends on the steerer length, the longer ones can be cut down so will fit a wider range of frames. Paint scheme and colour will play a role too, giving the number of frames it can reasonably be matched with without a respray.

That said, I'd say £75 (short steerer, tatty, odd colour) up to £150 (long steerer, good condition, usable colour like plain black).

I'd certainly have paid the upper end of that when I was looking for one - in the end I sold the frame because I couldn't find a fork...

Re:

Thanks lots, appreciate your unbiased thoughts. If I sell I'd go for middle ground. Know I should not sell really as have the frame which is all up and running. I had a straight alloy fork in my store and out of curiosity placed it in the Merckx. Firstly it looks really cool and more importantly the ride is stunning.
