Some lower-level pro road team got sponsored by them, I forget what year. Phil Anderson was signed by them. It had been a while since he had won anything, his best years behind him, so he couldn't be too picky about what team he signed with. He posed for the team pics with the Kirk, even a pic of him biting the frame, but he never rode one in a race. They were both heavier and whippier than his steel frame, so he just rode that with the team's paint job on it, maybe Kirk decals too? It was obvious from a mile away that it wasn't a Kirk Mag though.. I was surprised they let him do that, but the bikes really were terrible.
