It certainly appears to have a rimstrip anyway. And how about the fact that
Beloki doesn't even have his feet on the ground yet? And the Gendarme...
anybody notice that the crash hasn't even registered with him yet?

If I remember the video right, the Gendarme was focusing more on LA, he blew
right by him.

Say Mike,

Do you know how much Lance's new bike weighs and if he is using the front
STI lever?

TIA

Looks that way in the photo, but after watching the film again, it looks
like he's more focused on the riders coming down the hill who are heading
towards the crash. The crash happened right in front of him, then moved
right next to him as the photo was shot, so it's hard to imagine that he
wasn't aware of it.

The gendarme was very cool. He took a step backwards as Lance passed to
give him room. Then as the picture was taken, he had is eyes on an
Euskaltel rider that was headed his way. Once that rider came to a stop
on the side of the road, the gendarme stepped forward to help Beloki.

Yep, I saw the same thing when I watched the TV coverage later in the day.

Look at the rim. Looks like a clincher to me.

The fact that most of the tire is still attached to the rim
suggests that it is a tubular. Additionally, the sidewalls
of the rim are black rather than silver suggesting that the
wheels are carbon-rimmed tubulars that Beloki had been
riding earlier.

It's difficult to make out the bed of the rim. It could be
Velox. It could be the tubular base tape. It could be the
glue.

Look at the rim itself, where the bead of the clincher seats.
