Weird to have a brake fail. I wonder if it was already broken before the race and then something happened.
I’ve done 50,000km with hydro shimano and some testing conditions.
But I never start a race with old gear, always brand new or nearly new.
I think I saw Chris mention one of them was bodged before they started the race.
Yeah, broken on the flight over apparently and couldn't get the replacement banjo they needed, so it was off kilter from day 1.
