Molteni Cycling Jersey
One of the true classic jerseys that almost ever retro cycling jersey buyer should own is the Molteni Cycling Jersey. But its not simply the old school design its all the history connected to the rider most closely associated with this jersey, Eddy Merckx. Once you know the history behind Eddy's racing career you will see the added value in this classic cycling jersey. If you have an extra hour to spare check out the series of videos on youtube that feature the complete movie La Course on Tete which followed Eddy around in 1973. Plenty of Molteni shots. http://youtu.be/UpEPeU-bdxw
