Why the British Hill Climb champ uses disc brakes
As he prepares to defend his title later this month, we take a closer look at Andrew Feather's Cannondale SuperSix Evo LAB71. Whether you love them, hate them, or have no real strong opinion on disc brakes, it is undeniably getting rather tricky to buy a new bike with rim brakes, because a number of the top bike brands no longer offer them.
We were slightly surprised, then, when three-time British National Hill Climb champ Andrew Feather rocked up on his new disc brake bike...
While he doesn't tend to look at power for most of his effort, Feather also opts to run a Rotor INspider power meter during races despite the slight weight penalty:"I tend to do my best rides when I'm not looking at my power, but it's always handy, particularly at the start, to have a quick glance at power to make sure you're not setting off at 600 watts for a ten-minute effort," says Feather.
