Giacomo wrote;< have been contemplating this for a couple weeks while cleaning and getting to original a 77' Gios. You know the one DeVlaminck rode (Chrome fork sans coins). The question is this. How can a frame that has won 4 Paris Roubaix's "Get no respect"?> Now I'm flying by the seat of my pants here but wasn't RDV's first win in P-R for Dreher? I'm fairly sure they rode red bikes, highly unlikely to be Gios. Not that I disagree with the sentiment. I recall Gios had many more successes with Isjeboke (sic) the ice cream company and off-topic with Kelme. And as we all agree RDV was the best one-day rider not to win the Worlds, with Sean Kelly the second best. Ray Green, Brighton,England
