    Price Paid:  $30.00 at ebay

    Favorite Ride:
    home from work

    Bike Setup:
    look frame n forks, d/a ult' mix

    Summary:
    fantastic upgrade from 105 sc. i had thought that the price difference was absurd given that the 105s are solid, light, attractive, effective, but these things are stunning and have given me the confidence to ride with a recklessness that will make my granny sweat. next stop, dura ace...

    and they're very shiny.

    Strengths:
    they stop your bike quite well

    Weaknesses:
    nope

    Similar Products Used:
