Froome's bike is top of the line and that probably makes it into a more sensitive machine than more tried and true tech on production bikes for the rest of us. But if those disk brakes are what anybody can buy, then what he says should be of concern, mainly that about pistons rubbing. What is more damming is that his bike is serviced by pros. That should give a pause to the rest of us.
