Yeah, it's Knaven's Domo Farms Frites winning bike. If I recall from the article he donated it to some sort of museum right after the race with the mud intact. Ultralight Easton SC7000 Scandium which is an aluminum-like metal. I really want one of these and already have most of the Campy Record groupset to hang on one. It's a full-on doper-era classic and if it can withstand the rigors of blood-transfused, EPO-fueled riders, it's good enough for me!

It's almost impossible to find a negative opinion on these frames.
