Lance vs. Shaq. Is there a bike that he could even fit on? What size frame would he need, like a 75?

wow- that would be... sad (for Shaq). No doubt he's an amazing basketball player, but Lance and his teeny tiny biker bod would drop him like a hot potato. Not only would his bike be enormous, but to support his weight it would probably be pretty heavy.
I kinda wanna see it, too.

Here are the specs from a custom Cannondale he auctioned in 2005. Probably the same frame made for him by Cannondale in 1995.

PS - Did know LeBron James bought a stake in Cannondale in 2007?

So, where will Shaq be more outmatched, vs Lance or vs Michael Phelps? Maybe Lance can ride a Huffy

Hopefully Shaq is not someone who takes himself too seriously!

Somehow I'm picturing a race around a college track on tricycles?

Good for Shaq - way to have a little fun with life.

Okay, why a 320lb man would want/need (not be terrified to ride

) carbon wheels is beyond me!

I couldn't find a pic of Shaq's bike, but I found one of Yao Ming's:

Pretty cool.
