When did the detectors become commonplace? Was it before Spartacus and Froome were alleged to have done it?
If the detectors have rendered the motors useless for proper racing, I can imagine the 'inventor' selling to the Competitive Dad types who are desperate to win an Etape. That's a much more believable scenario than pros buying them.

And the top 10 from that day....
Foliforov nor Firsanov have ever won another WT race. Foliforov's only other top 10 in that race came from a breakaway stage.
If they did motor dope, and got away with it, it has to be possible others did.
Is it the first electric motor to be undetectable to magnetic flux density detectors then?
Because the UCI are literally undertaking thousands of tests a year, and have been for the last seven years, and have found one bike with a motor concealed in it.
