Brako takes the biggest win of his young career
One of the rising superstars on team Radio Shack® is the young Slovenian, Janez Brajkovic, who proved his merits by determinedly winning the 62nd Critérium du Dauphiné. Brajkovic took control early with a dominant stage three time trial on SRAM’s R2C (return to center) aero shift levers, beating fellow SRAM RED and R2C rider and Alberto Contador (Astana) by 26 seconds. After that performance ‘Brako’ continued to hold off challenges from the world-class field in the Pyrenees, including stage 6 to Alpe d’Huez.
