Obree's wearing Specialized Comp Road shoes, which were new in about 2003, plus or minus a year or so. Is this bike perhaps one of the machines built for the film? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15142#post-193469 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 11:38:43 +0000 kaputnik 193469@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><img src="http://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2012/09/11141_7C0000088dc_7C9a94_Graeme_Obree_Hour_Record.jpg"></p> <p>Graeme Obree broke the World Hour Record.</p> <p>Although that is not Old Faithful, looking at the bottom bracket, is it the version that Mike Burrows built for him that he tried to use the day before he broke the record? </p>
