That interview Froome did about disc brakes has been seriously blown up out of all proportion. If you hadn’t watched it you would think he had said that disc brakes are complete garbage. IIRC he said the actual braking performance was great, but he was having a few niggles with pad rubbing and squealing. He was also using aftermarket discs and pads from their sponsor, so not even original Shimano spec.

Has he commented more recently on this?
