Do people run their brake pads a bit wider in crits? My first few races I've heard what I think is some brake rub when I'm fully leaned in the corner. Seems like it's my wheel deflecting just a bit (fairly new Psimet build), and I'm curious if this is typical.
I do, but not for wheel deflection. I loosen them up so if I grab the lever too hard, I can't lock up the front wheel.
