It says here that Lance used Trek 5500 to win the tour in 1999
https://www.cyclingteam.org/trek-road-...d-bicycles
but does trek count that as an earlier version of the madone? |

Madone was introduced in 2003, completely redone in 2007
Trek road bikes have won 9 Tour's (7 LA, 2 Cont), 2 Giro's (1 Cont, 1 Falco), and 2 Vuelta's (1 Cont, 1 Heras)
Sorry, had to update those, over-estimated

Should also note though that Lance's first few TdF victories didn't come on a Trek TT bike (they sucked until 2007, and weren't top of the line till the Speed Concept of a couple weeks ago)
The TT bike's he used...A Litespeed Blade (titanium) bike

Wasn't Savoldelli riding a trek when he won the Giro in 05? |
