Old TT bikes

[stumpytrunks]

Gee Bianchi ripped off the seond FES. Apart from the small front wheel can anyone see any reason as to why it would be illegal?

did Ullrich use a FES time trial bike?

Yes he did. Until '94 as an Amateur. Then from '98 to '02 @ Team Telekom.

martin - do you have a bigger picture of the first fes bike? those cranks look incredible. i'd love to see a big pic with better detail if one is available...

Nope sorry.... i dont... maybe if you do some web research on the bike; its clearly a prototype. The Link i sopplied will give the patent number, so that might be something to start with.
