Darn, I LOVE seeing these guys race on plain old steel bikes! The bikes are so much prettier than the modern, carbon TT disasters.
I'm waiting for the day one of the Grand Tours uses plain, steel frames during a TT, with every rider on the same frameset. I'd like to see the technology scaled back and the riders themselves stand out more.
@nayr497 that would be fantastic but i have a small fear that drugs ( i am sorry for saying it but) would come into play and it would become a race, were the winner is the one with the most drugs
@nayr497 Kelly's not on steel in any of the footage here, he's on a Vitus 979 Ali frame with all Mavic. Beautiful machine and god knows how a power house like him didn't rip them to shreds.

Ah...Campy Super Record Crankset. I'd give my left nut for one of those, even though I could never push it like Sean did.
What chain would he run over those teeth?

@odinata It's actually a Mavic groupset.

Great video, but it's the 85 Nissan, not M-SR.
