Amazing! I wonder, how does he disconnect and reconnect the brakes? I've always had a hell of a time getting mine reconnected with my big ham fists.

This is amazing.
Also, just a note for those of us who are not racing - tires which are designed for touring and commuting don't get flats nearly as often as fancy lightweight tires. My commute bike has Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires on it, and I have 12,800 miles on a tire over which period I have had one flat.
