It was an opportunity to get back into the business he loved, and the world he knew most about. The company started in an old farmhouse in Meise, near Brussels and little by little started producing top of the range racing bicycles. Almost 30 years on, it is preparing itself to move into much larger premises, with new facilities, new machines and an amazing new showroom. One thing however hasn't c
hanged, namely the attention to detail and love of bikes that everyone in the company shares. Eddy has always been obsessed with bikes - in fact it wasn't unusual for him to get up in the middle of the night to change something on his handlebars or gears. Position, fit and feel are incredibly important for him - on his own bike and on those of others too. This innate understanding of how a bike should be - a result of talent and many years of experience - is key for the design of every Eddy Merckx bicycle. Our whole range of bikes - both carbon fiber and aluminum - has been designed to this philosophy. Each bike is supremely comfortable to ride, and all deliver a true feel for the road. And for those who want the ultimate in bikes, we are able to offer precision custom fitting to ensure you are always in the perfect position. Eddy Merckx Cycles ® company is currently a relatively small bicycle producer - but there are plans to increase output in the future. But no matter how many bikes are produced, there is one aspect where there will never be any compromises, and that is safety. Light and strong at the same time, the bikes are built to withstand years of riding and racing. Perhaps, the best demonstration of their strength is that at the end of a season's racing, there are zero bike failures due to frame failure. In short, we have so much belief in the quality of our frames that they have a lifetime warranty.
