I've admired this bike in Burwood Cycleworld whenever I've been in there. I think it is one of a limited edition done in 1989 by the Merckx factory, a "replica" loosely based on the Molteni bikes that Merckx rode. I guess that makes it "really real", or maybe a "real fake". Whatever, its nicely done. Still a bit pricey for me. Curious that they don't give a size. Maybe they don't expect a purchaser to ride it.
