Allegro had a deal with Eddy Merckx to become one of only three manufacturers licenced to produce bikes with the Merckx name and graphics, prior to Eddy’s racing retirement and the construction of his own frame shop. Quick to capitalize on the relationship with the greatest cyclist of all time, it was in fact Eddy’s image that took the cover of the 1974 Allegro catalog and if you were to order a 1970’s vintage model 26 or 76, it would indeed by painted orange with the familiar Merckx logo and frame dressings.

The frame has got some new decals, and will be equipped with a Shimano 600 group set.
The bottom bracket is French thread, the width is 68 mm, and thread 35 mm x 1mm (1.378 x 25.4 tpi)
