First ride on archetypes today - seem nice, if a bit heavy.
Only negative thing - braking. Are they always this grabby? Also, front rim squeals/judders horribly when being feathered. Is that normal?
They haven't got some sort of manufacturing residue on the brake track have they?
They have anodised brake surfaces - will wear off in the rain most likely. But, I'm about to take them to Mallorca for a week, rain is unlikely and I would prefer not to have them squealing at me all week.
