This fan's video shows Wout van Aert suffered the same rear wheel collapse as his Jumbo-Visma team mate Christope Laporte during Sunday's Paris-Roubaix.
The videos, below, show Van Aert coming to a stop in the Forest of Arenberg with a collapsed rear wheel. He quickly pulls in and switches bikes with team mate Timo Roosen.
The speed of the change is very impressive, with Van Aert on his way and rejoining the speeding group immediately. However, Roosen is left waiting for a new bike, which is eventually delivered to him by the team car.
It seems that Van Aert, like his team mate Laporte, suffered a puncture - both on Shimano Dura-Ace R9100 carbon rear wheels - and continued to ride it as far as he could until the wheel collapsed due to the impact of the cobbles.
