Zipp used to make bike frames, the blade-type of TT frames that were popular in Indurain's day. But that's past tense.
The point? They don't do that anymore.
There are a number of carbon facilites supplying the Indycar teams with parts. Zipp does what they do, and it's not Indycars.
Why mention Indycars? Because they are in Indianapolis, about a block from IMS.
