Dario's direct involvement in physically making a particular Dyna or Radius is captured on a long thread / post here: https://www.velocipedesalon.com/forum/f ... 44-13.html He said something to the effect of, "Yes, it's possible." As a side note, it was kind of mesmerizing to read his direct...

All I can say is thanks for answering (knew there was a possibility of no one seeing it), posting a photo of the team bike, and I think more than anything, that picture of Dario. A priceless memory I'm sure...
