Hey gang, aren't we forgetting that Allegro of Switzerland also made an Eddy Merckx licensed bike? The cataloged two versions, one a cheapie with steel cottered cranks, and the other a full-on Super Record equipped version. It is my understanding that Allegro was the first to license the Merckx name.
