    Landis did not do a bike swap towards the end of the stage. On stage 17 he swapped at the beginning of the col de la colombiere. If you look at the altitude profile its more like mid stage. He did the same trick on stage 15, on both stages he gained the yellow jersey. Its interesting to note...

    No Varjas said the wheels where about 800g heavier. The police wanted to weigh the wheels but the UCI did not allow them. https://www.electricbike.com/gruber-assist/ The entire drive unit (motor, gear, electronic control) weighs 900 grams. Maybe the battery was in the frame.

    It includes a 7.8ah battery wich gives 80km autonomy and other stuff you don't need in the pro peloton. Who is claiming this? If a bike or a wheel is 800 grams heavier it does not mean that thats the weight of the motor system. I think riders have been tuning their bike to well below the UCI...

    Bassons is an anti-doping representative who caught a motordoper. He is the second anti-doping member that I heard of who is speaking out on e-bikes publicly. It was used at the world champs by the U23 pre race favourite riding for the Belgium national team. The Belgium federation was tipped...

    Yannick Noah is an exception. He did not make his life any easier by bringing up doping. http://www.insidetennis.com/2009/10/short-history-drugs-tennis/ But then in September ‘80, Yannick Noah broke the silence in an interview with Rock & Folk, the French equivalent of Rolling Stone. While...

    You can also add Di Luca to that list. He actually did speak about motordoping but he was a bit vague. I wonder if it is a coincidence that according to him it started just after the years in which he had his best results...
