Are the brothers krahulik actually this strong? Or did they just help each other very well to solidify a 1-2?
This is 2013 Cutters all over again. The hope is that this team doesn’t get popped when Harbison and Brodell are on the bike in crunch time again. Can they do it? With a coach that preaches using other teams, and a coach that had a rider burn the team off the back in 2014 at lap 190, I don’t think so.
ITTs showed Joe really is that strong. Andy is still a strong rider and together I think they give SAE the best 1-2 in the race. Whether or not 3 and 4 can match Cutters, BKB, SigEp, or Wright’s 3-4 is the question
