Its the fastest bike on paper, but who's the fastest rider?

Me too, I could careless what things look like. Who really need to to stop when racing? You really just need to scruff off some speed

Maybe with modern pads and machined surfaces they will do better.....we'll see. I was under impressed when I last used them in the late 80s and early 90s. That's why I sold them.

Since they are going on my climber bike....maybe they will work out.

You still gotta come down and that's where it counts, right? Where do you normally go climbing down where you are?

[Jim Bremner]

At least they worked better than the modolo brakes
