Eddy Merckx MX Leader vs Corsa Frameset ?

In article said:

I was wondering if anyone out there has ridden both of these frames from Merckx ? I have a Corsa
frame I bought in 86 and have ridden it all over the state of Colorado and am getting concerned
about having toooooo many miles on it

This concern makes very little sense. But if you want a new bike that's OK with me. :-)

and have decided I would like a newer MX Leader but am sorta concerned about how it will handle
compared to my older more upright 86 Merckx with a 74degree seatpost angle? the newer MX leaders
are a more relaxed 72.39 degrees.

That factor should not affect handling at all if you put the saddle in the correct place.

If the 74 degree seattube angle fits, i would wonder if the 72 and change one would even fit ya.
