With the TT up the Alpe d'huez this year, what kind of modifications to the bikes will be done?
Will (can?) they remove the rear brakes? ...go to a single chainring? ...go to downtube shifters? ...remove some cogs?
Are there special superlight frames made just for climbing/no descending? superlight wheels?
Do the UCI minimum weight rules (15.x lbs) apply to the TT as well as the rest of the race?
