Mekk Pinerolo?
I don't know anything about this brand. Seen it a few times when browsing online.

Saw this model this morning and brought mack memories of grade 8 when my friend asked his parents to get him a Rolex watch during their trip to Hong Kong.

They came back with an ugly, gray, plastic-y thing. The face had a pattern kinda like the LOOK colors/ pattern. The watch brand was POLEK.

I guess this Mekk is legit but first thing to mind was Merckx Pinarello?

And Nashbar, apparently. 10,000 an hour popped out of a mold, dead riding, cheap frames, imo of course, ymmv. And a cheesy play on Merckx and Pinarello. If you look quick, Mexx looks like Merckx. Lame.
