I don't know whether the seller is a listmember but his response makes me wonder whether this was a special edition of the Professional Derosa model. Here is his response.
" it is autographed Eddie Merckx. It is in showroom condition, and was last in the '84 Olympic trials. Also, I already have several offers on the bike that basically meet my reserve on it."
The initial price of $1950 doesn't meet reserve, and I thought that price was much more than what it was worth. Does anyone know whether this is a rare collectible model? Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
