So I take it they are very light cause the bike is actually just floating there!?

Looks

What wheels are they ? Cant make it out in the pic.

 

Tell how what they feel like compared to original wheels

So yesterday I got struck down with a violent case of the sharts so no test ride. Anyways. Just did a little burn now.

 

I'm not so sure what the fuss is all about hey. They are much stiffer than my old wheels. The freehub sounds like a machine gun and they are 800 grams lighter than my old wheels. The carbon rolling makes a very distinctive sound and the 25mm tires run wider than they did on the stock Giant wheels. They also seem to pick up speed MUCH faster than the stock wheels.

 

They also make my bike look SICK!

 

Meh.

The fuss is there to help you cope with justifying the cost....

 

That's the best I'm able to come up with...

That's in the reserve. The only people in there are the surfers and cyclists.

I understand why there are cyclists in the reserve...but surfers? Is there surf in the reserve...I've never heard of any spots there........

No surfers. Long Beach is the furthermost South you can go on the peninsula

Had it for a few weeks. Great piece of kit and super fast. Unfortunately not made ME any faster though ......

Not brand new, but new to me   Came across a once in a lifetime deal on a Specialized Sworks epic frame and Fox float 34 SC performance fork and I obviously pulled the trigger ... I also just had to get the matching Sworks phenom seat and Sworks seatpost

After around 12 years it was time to retire my old Spez road shoes.

When into Cyclelab to see what specials they had and walked out with these. They weren’t on special but they were only ones I liked that were close to my measly budget.

I have a pair as well as the pedals for about 2 years now. Extremely happy with them so far. I mainly ride road in summer, extremely seldom during winter.
