To this category I must add John Slawta of Landshark (with whom cycles de ORO enjoys a great business relationship!) who has supplied many top riders both on track and road. Roy Knickman, Greg Demgen, Thurlow Rogers and Jme Carney come to mind immediately but most notable must be the only USA builder and USA rider to win the Giro, with Andy Hampsten in the saddle!
