Dimitris worked alongside Chris Boardman in the Secret Squirrel Club, creating the pioneering bikes and kit that helped Team GB dominate the London 2012 Olympics. Ever wondered where the term marginal gains came from? Yep, Dimitris and his colleagues, whose work at the time was so secret not even his boss, one Dave Brailsford, was allowed to know.Across a career spanning three decades and counting, Dimitris has had a hand in winning over 100 gold Olympic and World cycling medals, and right now his components and creations can be seen on four national teams Olympic bikes (though he wont say which ones). Today he runs his own company, Metron A.E, which 3D-prints cutting edge parts for sport, aerospace and the medical industry. He also 3D-printed Fillipo Gannas Hour record Pinarello Bolide F. Theentirebike.This is a man who has a story about everyone from Wiggins to Ganna, and who can explain aerodynamic drag with just his hands.
