A little over a year ago I bought a used Eddy Merckx Corsa steel frame and built it up with Dura Ace 9000. It's now time to return her to her late 80's or early 90's routes.

Combined Chainset, I am going to give this all a polish to bring it back to its best.

The very heavy Shimano UN55 Square Taper Bottom Bracket 70x113mm I plan to use a few new parts were possible and where it will not be noticed to much.

More to come as the parts are found and arrive :beerchug:
