I have seen some posts here stating that FL used a triple crank on stage 17. In the footage I watched it clearly showed double crank on the Joux Plan climb. Did the first (the one with the broken spoke?) have a triple on it?

I don't think Landis, or anyone else in the peloton used a triple in Stage 17. But I did like his horn and cards in his spokes.

the post about a triple was a joke, IIRC.
