Can anyone out there tell me what the difference is between an Eddy Merckx Corsa and Corsa Extra? Is it tubing...SL vs. SLX? Geometry differences?
Thanks for any insight.

Corsa 753

Thank you.

I am embarrased to say, one of 6 Merckx's around here.

1 Corsa
2 Corsa Extras
1 MX Leader
1 Team SC
1 Titanium AX

( I need help!)

However, always looking for more, or more De Rosa's !!
