sorry I had a box of wine last night and thought about tires :mrgreen:

I ride the onzas with clear elastomers long and several thousand km, they are been very reliable.
However I would never go with them for this season, by cooling the elastomers being hardened and could trigger unusual.
I like them special because the lock is very comfortable by Easy-Clicks system.

But what is the alternative? Shimanos are too heavy for me ...maybe the Egg Beater from Crank Bros :?

If you prefer the clears(hard to believe), nothing else will come close to the jello like feel and ability to clip out simply by pulling up, except for maybe platforms. But those might grip your shoes too well

very Nice, you must be chuffed

btw I notice you build with mostly black components on all your builds
and this one's no different, is it a force of habit ?
Don't get me wrong it looks good !

Nick
