For the first couple of rides, I thought, "what's all the fuss about?" Now I can see a big difference, especially on the downhill runs. They seem smoother and faster. And apparently, harder to flat.
Nice, makes me feel good. I just got my 105 pedals in the mail today from the UK after about a week and a few days so im optimistic. Makes me happy that people are saying they're fast. I feel like my kendas are slowing me down quite a bit. we'll see.... harder to flat is a bonus for me as well. i got stuck 20km from my home without a spare tube the other day. wont make that mistake again.
