Sure some riders picked mechanic just for this race. Contador was not fan of electronic at all...

more pertinently, Cancellara used mechanical for Flanders and Roubaix

I had the shifter paddle on my RHS Sram Red shifter snap during a race. Granted, local training race, and the big hitters would have dropped me eventually, but I was also far ahead of rest of the field (which still contained a few big hitters). Would have gotten a top 5 in a 1/2/3 race (by staying with the other cat-3s in the break), but had to watch the break sail up the road when my chain got dumped on the 11t...
