Wowzer.
I have always found him to be a credible source of information. I believe his background is in aerospace CF of some sort, if I recall correctly. There are a couple of good videos on CF wheels he did with Cycling Maven a few yeas ago, or at least, there used to be.

Cervelo could have restricted the steerer rotation by letting the bars slam into the top tube, just like every other frame!

How many Cervelo frames actually have been damaged as a result of this, anyone know?
(And side note - does it really take 11 minutes to make that point? I realize we are Content Creators these days, but for the love of god, man, keep things crunchy)

Not a link to the tread itself, but if you follow the links from Josh Poertner, Robert Chung, or Damon Rinard here, https://flocycling.com/blogs/blog/fl...ni-accusations it will drop you into the middle of it (warning: it's a 22 page thread). The evidence from Flo regarding the lawyer letter also gives insight into Hambini's credibility.

Not a fan of the new R5 at all. Looks ok, But it's a banker bike. Better off with the R series frames they make.
