Now that explains Dungey's good starts. KTM has found a way to use the electric starter
for more power on the start line. LaughingLaughingLaughing

If a bicycle has a motor isn't it a motorcycle? I'm a little perplexed by Greg Lemond in the video, is he for this?

Interesting read: http://uk.businessinsider.com/vivax-motor-bike-doping-scandal-2016-2?r=…

"She stayed [seated] on the saddle, and for the Vivax system it's best that you stay on the saddle," Daems said. "Your rpm's from the saddle are from 70 to 90, and then you have the best effect from the motor. That's what she did on the Koppenberg. All the other girls were standing up on the pedals, and she was the only one sitting,"

also Cancellara stayed on the saddle (VIDEO)

"You can download in the App Store an app for magnetic search," he said. "With a simple app you can find the motor, because the motor is [made] from steel and the frame is carbon. You can see the difference in the material."

When the motorized bike was first discussed after Cancellara's inhuman jumps in 2010's Paris Roubaix and Tour of Flanders the doubters were laughed at and told to adjust their tinfoil hats. Those with a history of following pro cycling knew no funny hats were needed to suspect the unbelievable was just that. Cancellara's team Director Sportif was Bjarne Riis, a doper who won the TDF with enough EPO to sustain a hospital's pulmonary unit.
