But that’s pretty much as far as the comparison can take us. The first thing that strikes one is the futuristic appearance of the frame: the tubes are not round, but they are not square, either. They make curves and angles that have seldom been seen in competitive cycling before. That extreme design also resulted in the Aerofork II - the fork at the front that is partly integrated into the frame – which is even more pronounced. The 525 has also been given a solid head for even more sturdiness and an asymmetrical rear for the ideal distribution of forces. Electronic Only The frame of the EMX-525 has been designed specially and exclusively for electronic gear shifts. With that decision, Eddy Merckx Cycles has made a resolute decision for the future and for optimal performance in terms of both changing gears and the frame. The aggressive back to the future look, extreme aerodynamics and the decisive choice for electronic shifting make the EMX-525 a full-blooded racing horse. A horse that can be seen on the tracks starting next season. The Topsport Flanders / Mercator Pro Cycling Team will be riding the new EMX-525 bike then. 7 frame technology > A fraction of a degree and a few mm makes a world of difference. concept engineering detailed design prototyping and design 0 production market launch engineering +6 > +8 months +10 > +14 months +18 > +20 months +20 > +24 months CONCEPT ENGINEERING AND DESIGN DETAILED DESIGN First sketches are produced at this stage, and despite what anyone says there’s always some sort of a trade-off. It’s a mixture of looks, price and performance. With the last two being measurable and quantifiable. This stage often starts almost 18 months to 2 years ahead of the actual bike getting to the dealers, so while there’s scope for change, there’s also a deadline and a launch date. A lot of the work is done here, and production options and decisions are mapped out. A host of different elements come into the mix here: geometry, frame sizes, loads, stresses, manufacturing, parts, orders, stock etc. Now there is a clear idea of what the bike will look like, and the established Eddy Merckx look and style is integrated into the design. After the first sketches and long fruitful discussions with Eddy, the engineers start to nail down the final frame geometry - and this for the different frame sizes. As some of you may remember, Eddy was always fiddling about with his bikes - he was even known to fiddle about during a race, often changing the height of his saddle. With his 50 years of experience at the heart of the bike world, there is no-one better at detailing just what it takes to make a better bike. He can see things that others can´t, in fact you could say that Eddy is the best test pilot there is. It is his tweaks and adjustments on the final angles and lengths of the seat posts, wheelbase and trail that - amongst the most important of measurements - make all the difference. Before moving into actual frame prototypes, the detailed bike design is fully tested and structurally analysed by technical research engineers at the University of Gent. They work with the 3-D computer models of the bikes, measuring and pushing the limits using different materials and composites. materials production design Color: BKR Black/Red Carbon: CL + 500 1k Sizes: 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60 MSRP: $3,800 frameset (frame, fork, seatpost) 9 Color: Nude Carbon: CL + 500 1k Sizes: 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60 MSRP: $3,800 frameset (frame, fork, seatpost) 10 Color: BKR Black/Red Carbon: CL + 500 1k Sizes: 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60 MSRP: $3,800 frameset (frame, fork, seatpost) 11 Color: WCA White/Black/Red Carbon: CL + 300 3k Sizes: 42, 45, 48, 51, 54 MSRP: $3,800 Shimano Ultegra Complete Bike GROUPO: Complete Ultegra w/ Compact Crank WHEELS: Fulcrum Racing 5 BAR: FSA Wing Pro STEM: FSA SLK SEATPOST: FSA SLK SADDLE: Prologo Nago Ti 12 Color: Black/Carbon Carbon: CL + 300 3k Sizes: 42, 45, 48, 51, 54 MSRP: $3,800 Shimano Ultegra Complete Bike GROUPO: Complete Ultegra w/ Compact Crank WHEELS: Fulcrum Racing 5 BAR: FSA Wing Pro STEM: FSA SLK SEATPOST: FSA SLK SADDLE: Prologo Nago Ti 13 Color: WRD White/Red/Black Carbon: CL + 240 UDM Sizes: 42, 45, 48, 51, 54 MSRP: $2,600 Shimano 105 Complete Bike GROUPO: Complete 105 w/ Compact Crank WHEELS: Fulcrum Racing 7 BAR: FSA Wing Compact STEM: FSA Team Issue SEATPOST: FSA Team Issue SADDLE: Prologo Kappa STN 14 Color: BRC Black/Red Carbon: CL + 240 UDM Sizes: 42, 45, 48, 51, 54 MSRP: $2,600 Shimano 105 Complete Bike GROUPO: Complete 105 w/ Compact Crank WHEELS: Fulcrum Racing 7 BAR: FSA Wing Compact STEM: FSA Team Issue SEATPOST: FSA Team Issue SADDLE: Prologo Kappa STN 15 Color: CWH White/Black Carbon: CL + 240 UDM Sizes: 40, 43, 46, MSRP: $2,600 Shimano 105 Complete Bike GROUPO: Complete 105 w/ Compact Crank WHEELS: Fulcrum Racing 7 BAR: FSA Wing Compact STEM: FSA Team Issue SEATPOST: FSA Team Issue SADDLE: Prologo Kappa Dea 16 a frame for life Eddy Merckx bikes are designed and built to withstand years of riding, without incident or accident. A dealer gives We offer you the same guarantee Eddy Merckx Cycles have so much belief in the quality of their frames that each new carbon model bought at a recognized Eddy Merckx dealer comes with a ‘Limited Lifetime Warranty’. team bikes passed the test with flying colours, and it confirms what we know that the best demonstration of strength is that there are zero Quick-Step team bike failures due to frame failure at the end of a hard season on the road. We asked Mr. Godeau, owner of a dealership that’s been working with Eddy Merckx Cycles for We test them in the toughest of conditions, and with the hardest of task- 1.

The ‘Limited Lifetime Warranty’ is only available to a bicycle’s first owner, and so please note that this guarantee is therefore NOT applicable to second-hand bikes. Note too, that the Limited Lifetime Warranty does not apply to bikes used in competitions. Eddy has always made quality - and safe - bikes, and the latest carbon fibre range is no exception. I know 4. The ‘Limited Lifetime Warranty’ is not the only benefit of registering your bike.

Eddy Important - The warranty is only available for bicycles purchased from officially recognized dealers, and for the Limited Lifetime Warranty to remain valid, the frame must be inspected at least once a year by an official Eddy Merckx Cycles dealer. - When claiming against the Limited Lifetime Warranty, you must present the original receipt of purchase. We recommend you keep a copy of your receipt inside the back cover of your passport. has always been extremely correct in that respect.” When asked what customers actually think about the LLW, he says “it is indeed a little extra reassurance that some of the clients need - yet another rational reason to choose an Eddy Merckx bike.” Color: CAW Carbon/White/Red Carbon: CL + 500 UDM Sizes: 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, MSRP: $6,500 Frameset (Frame, Fork, Seatpost, Stem, Brake Calipers) 18 Strength through Partnership The ETT is a magnificent time trial bike. It is the result of a great deal of research and development. The fact Eddy Merckx Cycles is looking for inspiration at Lexus should not surprise anyone: the carmaker has always been one step ahead of its competition in terms of technology, after all. And that is how Eddy Merckx wants to distinguish itself in the future: by investing in carbon technology and by optimizing the bikes further through aerodynamics. Rigorous wind tunnel testing shows the ETT’s revolutionary Venturi Power Box’s ability to reduce aerodynamic drag by opening the leading edge of the down tube. This is all able to be achieved without loss of frame stiffness due to Eddy Merckx’s Optimized Structual Reinforcement technology. These Venturi “Slots” have been approved for racing by the UCI, and are exclusively available on the ETT.

A sleek, simple and strong track bike and made of steel - it is designed to be ridden in the city, and to be used on streets and roads whatever their condition. It’s also painted in that inimitable orange colour that reminds us all of Eddy in Mexico. 21 GEOMETRIES EMX-525 & EMX-5 GEOMETRY Size Seat Tube Effective Seat Tube c-t-c Reach Stack TT Effective A TT Drop HT length B ST angle C HT angle D BB drop E CS length F Wheelbase G Front-Center H Fork length I Fork offset J Setback Standover Trail 22 48 cm 50 46.6 378 501 52.1 105 74.3 71 7.1 40.8 97.4 57.6 36.5 43 13.4 70.5 50 cm 50.7 47.7 383 511 53.3 3 114 73.8 71.3 7.1 40.8 98 58.2 36.5 43 14.2 77.7 68.7 52 cm 52.5 49.5 387 527 54.5 3 129 73.4 71.7 7.1 40.8 98.5 58.7 36.5 43 15 79.3 66.2 54 cm 54 51 392 541 55.7 3 145 73.1 72 6.9 41 99.5 59.5 36.5 43 15.7 80.9 64.3 EMX-3 & EMX-1 GEOMETRY 56 cm 55.8 52.8 396 556 56.9 3 160 72.7 72.4 6.9 41 100 60 36.5 43 16.6 82.4 61.8 58 cm 57.9 54.9 401 571 58.2 3 174 72.4 72.7 6.9 41.2 #### 60.6 36.5 43 17.5 83.9 59.9 60 cm 59.7 56.7 405 586 59.5 3 191 72 73.1 6.7 41.2 #### 61.1 36.5 43 18.4 85.7 57.4 Size Seat Tube Effective Seat Tube c-t-c Reach Stack TT Effective A TT Drop HT length B ST angle C HT angle D BB drop E CS length F Wheelbase G Front-Center H Fork length I Fork offset J Setback Standover Trail 42 cm 50.7 42.2 369 526 51.9 8.5 129 74.2 71.5 7.1 41.4 97.3 57 36.5 43 13.8 79.2 67.4 45 cm 52.9 44.9 373 546 53.4 8 149 73.7 71.9 7.1 41.4 98.2 57.8 36.5 43 14.9 81.2 64.9 48 cm 55.4 47.9 378 568 55 7.5 173 73.2 72.3 6.9 41.4 99.1 58.6 36.5 43 16 83.6 62.4 51 cm 57.7 50.7 384 589 56.7 7 193 72.7 72.7 6.9 41.4 99.9 59.4 36.5 43 17.2 85.7 59.9 54 cm 60.1 53.6 388 610 58.3 6.5 216 72.2 73.1 6.7 41.4 100.6 60.2 36.5 43 18.4 88 57.4 ETT GEOMETRY Size Seat Tube c-t-c Reach Stack TT Effective A HT length B ST angle C HT angle D BB drop E CS length F Wheelbase G Front-Center H Fork length I Fork offset J Setback Standover Trail 51 cm 50.9 3888 491.5 52.1 101.5 75 71.5 6 39 96.4 58.2 36.8 43 13.2 76.9 69.4 53 cm 52.9 403.8 510.5 54.1 121.7 75 71.5 6 39 98.6 60.3 36.8 43 13.7 78.8 69.4 55 cm 54.9 422.4 530.8 56.5 140.3 75 72 6 39 100.4 62.1 36.8 43 14.2 80.8 69.4 EFX-1 GEOMETRY Size Seat Tube Effective Seat Tube c-t-c Reach Stack TT Effective A TT Drop HT length B ST angle C HT angle D BB drop E CS length F Wheelbase G Front-Center H Fork length I Fork offset J Setback Standover Trail 40 cm 50.3 40.3 353 523 49.8 10 130 75 70.4 7.3 40.8 96.7 57 36.5 48 13 78.7 69 43 cm 52.8 42.8 360 546 51.4 10 155 74.5 70.8 7.1 41 98 58.1 36.5 48 14.1 81.2 66.5 46 cm 55.3 45.3 366 569 53.1 10 178 74 71.2 7.1 41 99 59.1 36.5 48 15.3 83.6 64 UMX-S GEOMETRY 57 cm 57.5 439.8 555.9 58.9 165.6 75 72.5 6 39 102.7 64.4 36.8 43 14.9 83.3 62.8 59 cm 59.5 454.9 575 60.9 185.6 75 72.5 6 39 105.2 66.5 36.8 43 15.4 85.2 62.8 Size Seat Tube Effective Seat Tube c-t-c Reach Stack TT Effective A TT c-t-c TT Drop HT length B ST angle C HT angle D Setback BB drop E CS length F Wheelbase G Front-Center H Fork length I Fork offset J Setback Standover Trail 50 cm 50.5 52.5 361 501 50 51 -2 110 75 73 13.1 5.9 39.5 92.8 54.1 36.5 43 13.1 77.9 58 53 cm 51.5 54 385 507 53 54 -2.5 115 74.5 73.5 13.8 5.9 39.5 94.9 56.1 36.5 43 13.8 78.5 55 56 cm 53.5 56.5 407 530 56 57 -3 136 74.2 74.4 14.6 5.9 39.5 97 58.2 36.5 43 14.6 80.8 49.5 59 cm 54.7 58.2 427 539 59 60 -3.5 145 73.5 74.5 15.5 5.9 39.5 99.1 60.4 36.5 43 15.5 81.7 48.8 23 CATALOG 2013 U.S.A.
