Did anybody else notice horrible disc brake squeal coming from Roglič's bike during descending on yesterdays stage?

Yes. I love discs but that descent was making me laugh, the squeal was louder than Eurosport commentators

[robbosmans]

Just wet and cold brakes nothing special

Yes, but I also noticed him able to brake far later into turns and having next to no issues on the descent other than when Bernal had issues stopping and nearly took out his front wheel as he narrowly avoided hitting/going over an armco!

Or like when ODD CHRISTIAN EIKING braked into that other turn...Oh wait

Pretty sure as the Astana rider on the ground came into Eiking's field of view, he over reacted and attempted to brake/slow down but in the process unweighted the front end, thus the front wheel hydroplanned and down he went.

Most probably due to weather forecast and braking.

He used c60 also in the wet Giau stage at this years Giro

Did someone notice the rear wheel of the Hope TT bike? A Bora ultra disc for disc brakes? Its not abailable right?

Team GB tests some Campag equipment. I think that prototype only exists in tubular at the moment though. Looking forward to seeing it when it comes to clincher.

[eurostar]

Maybe something to do with the development of the Hope TT bike?

Ineos to finally ride on disc brakes tomorrow at GP Denain as test/prep for Roubaix.

Hell freazes over if true

[Dan Gerous]

It's Hell Freeza™ over in this case!

That's what the team announced today at least.
