- Excellent stopping power. - Very good modulation. - Extremely light weight. - Look cool, very svelte. - Hundred bucks cheaper than the Ti version with a weight penalty equivalent to a couple of Triscuits.
- Quick release does not open up far enough to let your wheel out without letting the air out. True for 25c AND 23c, if you can believe it. - Difficult to get centered. - No adjustment for aligning brake pad to rim.
These stop harder and with better modulation than I expected. The main negative is not being able to take out a wheel without letting all the air out; this because the quick release does not open up far enough. STUPID, ZERO GRAVITY! SHAME... With a 23c tire, you *might* be able to yank it through. With a 25c tire, if you yank it hard enough you'll rip one of the pads right out of the carrier. Ugh. Get used to carrying a good pump with you everywhere. There's no way to align the pad to your rim, but this is resolved after 50 miles or so. No problem for me. I had trouble getting both front and rear centered at first, and now they seem to be holding. Fingers crossed.
