Is it my imagination or is he running a smaller diameter wheel on the front of the bike to improve his aero position?

Maybe it is the original 650b....

 

We used to to that in the triathlons back in the day.

The Wheel to lust after was the Specialized Tri spoke 650 c.

Hell yeah,

 

that was the 80's not self respecting person rode anything other than the Campy... You'd be mocked in the streets & small children would taunt you.

Uh Oh...

 

Unfortunately we have some doping news...

The judges in the Mantova investigation has sent 27 people to trial. That includes 18 riders, amongst them Damiano Cunego and Allessandro Ballan.

 

Edit: Beaten to it...

Definitely a 650c wheel in front. It was the norm back in the day to use a smaller wheel in front for TTs.

 

I stand corrected.
