Disc sales will increase 10 fold.

Both are 7800 crank arms. I've seen many of them broken, always in that same spot.

Tell me when anyone has ever seen a full explanation of bio passport irregularity cases? As the article mentions, the full details are almost never disclosed publicly so that no one gains information as to how and why flagging may occur.

How did it break? uphill, sprint or just riding along?

Wow, strange that it would break that way. But if there enough breaks as such and they are documented and acknowledged as legitimate breaks then a recall of some kind needs to happen before someone gets hurt.
