Sean Flores asks "...... using a "special" bike for this race? ...what about frames? Can anyone clue me into specific, on topic examples where riders have had special frames and builds developed for the P-R and how far back does this go?..."

The book "Paris - Roubaix, a Journey through Hell" has some info on this. I see some of that on page 24 and I assume it will be mentioned on other of its 220 pages, but haven't read my copy cover to cover to respond to this query. I will some day but for now, I enjoy turning the page through this book's great photos.
