Milram rode Lightweights one year as well, and the Fakta team rode Lightweights on their Principias. Apparently those Fakta Lightweights were passed along for years afterwards

The LW disc wheel is very handy obviously given the opportunity to get a TT bike's weight down. that is well established pre-Rio of course.
Were there any riders in the road race on LWs (other than the Italians) ... that is much more interesting on performance grounds
BTW, tyre choice was interesting in the TT. Quite a few Conti Comps kicking around by the looks of things.

Froome's back wheel in the TT didn't look like a pro disc wheel...it looked like something else with a pro sticker on...dew anyone know anything?
