Also responsible for the sloping top tube on modern road bikes (I still think they are ugly to look at), started with the Giant TCR that supplied the ONCE team who dropped Look bikes. I had one of the first 180 alum Team TCR frames that came into the US from Giant. It was light, fast and twitchy down the long mt decent.
