lol...this was like 1994, so they were the orignal silver puppies, screw-on 8-speed cassette, Michelin Supercomp HD tyres.
but yes...feeding frenzy at the end of the Sun tour was great. I've bought jerseys from Marcel Wust, socks and gloves from Jean-Paul van Poppel, sunglasses from Paolo Lanfranchi, wheels form Henk Vogels the list goes on and on and on......
A mate nearly bought Tristan Hoffman's whole TVM team issue Reynolds 753 bike for $2500, until his missus stepped in.
