That is HOT! It's so much cleaner looking then the SS conversions.

I assume the rear spacing is 130mm and you're using spacers to get the chainline straight?

I like candies a lot more than EBs.

I tried Candies for a couple of races last year. While I liked having a larger platform, I found it harder to get clipped into them compared to my regular EB's.
