From the second week, the 2000 graphics made their debut with black bands between light blue and yellow. Perhaps vaguely inspired by the Martini Racing graphics used on Bianchi mountain bikes of the period, it turned out to be one of the most successful liveries. Thanks to Pantani's fundamental help in the decisive stage of Briançon, Garzelli managed to win that Giro, using the titanium version, while the Pirate always raced with aluminum. Both Columbus and Dedacciai frames were produced in this color scheme.
