Yes, as Martin says, he did win, and what an interesting Telekom triumph that was . I think Vino didn't even shake hands after....

Regarding Ulrich's olympic frame - Early scandium frames commonly had necked up/down sections to get the most bang for the buck at joints vs elsewhere. Opera frames - a div of Pinnerella uses various other brands of tubing other than the Deda proprietory that Pinnerella uses.....meaning they have experiance with projects such as this.

Incidentally, Ullrich swapped bikes at the foot of one of the big TdF climbs in 2000 - between what looked like a regular Pinarello Prince and that same thinner tubed frame...
