Mediocre products? Hahahaha. What do you ride? Shimano Tiagra/Sora?

I got SRAM Red on five bikes, Campy 11 on one and Dura-Ace on two bikes. SRAM Red is the best!

Calling Sram products mediocre is far from reality; I dont mean to say they are the best but their price/quality range is very high.

Looks like Leopard is using Lightweight discs:

Bontrager don't have a disk wheel so they supply Lightweights for their sponsored teams instead. Same with RS.

Assuming that's from the Tour de Suisse, I wonder if he uses the Lightweight disc on totally flat courses.

Ah ok.
Well, they had the LW disc already at the first training camps and ever seen them using so they must like them a lot (as it isnt a team sponsor as far as I know).

Just to requote the answer from earlier as to why Leopard Trek use a Lightweight disc wheel.
