Anyone see his crash at the Tirreno-Adriatico ??
Looks like either his wheel failed or forks failed ?
i know its a few days old , but ive just watched it on sky +

from what i could see on the tv coverage it looked like all that was left was his wheel rim on the floor . Lucky lad

link?

Forks look fine.

Looks like his hub failed.

"When we started off I didn’t feel too bad, then at the bottom of the Turchino, as we were fighting for position, I got three spokes ripped out of my wheel," he explained to gazzetta.it in a video interview.

"I had to do a wheel change at the bottom of the Turchino. I chased and right at the top I got back to the peloton but then there was a crash in the peloton on the tunnel. I started the descent and normally I'm a good descender. The peloton was in ten groups down the descent and I went through all the groups, boom, boom, boom, and into the second group but I think there was already 40 up the road."
