I'm gonna agree 100% with the last review. I'm a 165lb. climber/lead out rider. I dig the wheels. Braking is decent. Looks great against my black and white cannondale. They spin up very quickly when "kicked" hard for paceline surges or blasts out of a corner. I notice they don't hold speed as well, but that's only on flats. Decents are a breeze. Speaking of breeze, you'll notice it when there is a cross wind, but thats par for the course. Hubs are decent, spokes are...meh, but the carbon layout is very pretty and the gloss finish is nice. Heck, for $899, you really can't go wrong. Good for racing/spirited club rides. If you smash the crap out of 'em, you aren't out a ton.

On a side note, when I switched to these wheels over my mavics...My usual challengers had a much more difficult time keeping up.

Wow, what a gorgeous pair of shoes. I purchased the all white and when I pulled them out of the box, I was instantly impressed. The carbon soles are beautiful, the side grilles are a killer touch and the shoe just looks fast. On the bike they are a stable, solid platform, like any super high end shoe. After riding with these, I'm confused as to why they aren't 4 times more expensive. The SBS system works perfectly. having the 3rd button to release the strap on notch at a time is a nice touch. The inner soul is thin, but I like that. I have a moderately wide foot in front, and these fit nicely. The mid to rear section of the shoe does get narrow, but after a few miles fit well. The heel cup is high and snug, which I love. ONE HUGE THING: ORDER ONE SIZE LARGER THAN YOUR SHOE SIZE. Save the returns hassle. Wear a 10 shoe? Order an 11.

GREAT BIBS!!! I reach for these before any of my others. I get compliments on them all the time.

I must admit this is one of the coolest looking bib's I owned...until I rode with it. I had to return the bib because of the crotch width. I felt like the bibs were made for people with larger hips and an american butt...wide. I wear a large in all of my other bibs, but this one felt like an extra large. I absolutely LOVED the bib strap length and material (and it didn't pull on my shoulders). The inseam was nice and long. The chamois is thin, with very little padding in the center. This was nice, because I use a cut out saddle and often find most chamois have too much padding down the middle which causes uncomfortable pressure. What it all comes down too....if you're shaped like Hincappe, these will fit well. Taller people with larger thighs will rejoice.

I snagged lemonade because I was so tired of "orange" or "red" drinks. It's got a nice refreshing taste, that counters the salty flavor nicely. Keep this drink cold though, because once it starts getting hot, the flavor diminishes.
