I read on a German forum that none of that is true. Also it has pictures of every bike broken except YT. You should check it out sometime.Given the size of the jumps and the speeds he was going, and the fact that before they mentioned brakes at all and everybody thought it was the guide, and then the part where mick hannah said he squeezed gwins brakes at the bottom and said they pulled back to the bars, I think its fairly safe to assume it was the brakes.
Anyway, I know your trolling for no other reason then because you're stupid, but just a heads up: I know you have a big boner for YT, and I honestly have never had somebody sell me so hard on NOT ever ever touching or buying a bike as you are right now simply by association. Besides hipsters and fixies. You're on par with them. Anyway, I know I, and I'm guessing several other members on this forum, would not buy a bike from them because of your active presence flaming on everything that isn't them. Which is bad for you, because the more people that buy them, the cheaper they are for you.
