I was wondering: who were/are the pros that rode/ride Lightweights?!

Shouldn't this be a cool thing to have listed?

Let's do it like this:
1. I make a list in this first post and edit the list as soon as a new pro name is added to the topic.
2. You give the name of a pro rider only with at least one picture of that pro on Lightweight wheels. :!:
Pro names won't be added without picture of them using the wheels.
3. For the moment we don't ask the help of CarbonSports yet :D First see how many we can list...
4. Pictures of pros on Lightweights that were allready mentioned are welcome as well. :wink:
5. Pros don't have to be only male cyclist: also female athletes and triathletes can join the list.

tip: to upload images, you can use for instance http://imageshack.us/

Bobby julich rode them in the 96 tour.

Johan Brunyeel also rode them.


Both of these riders are pictured riding lightweights in Graham Watsons Cycling Photography book. I don't know if those are online or not...

Simoni has the most absurd leg muscles I've ever seen in that Lampre picture of him with a rear disc...[/quote]
