Even if is was Schlecks fault he dropped the chain, Contador still shouldn't have attacked, pushed hard and set the pace. Contador had to go AROUND Schleck, what did he think. Oh Schleck just decided to stop when he had a gap on me for no reason?

Choosing Sram over Shimano or Campy is a choice. A mechanical failure as a result should serve as no excuse for someone not to attack. Schlecks chain again hiccuped today. Hate to beat a dead horse, but Im sorry to say that thats just plain evidence thats its equipment thats doesnt work as it should. It just proved to be unproven.
