I simply can't @Amey
I cooked £50 worth of ZIPP pads in one day and spent every descent hoping my wheels/tubes/tyres weren't going to explode, whilst also cringing at the squealing that was going on while I was riding the Giant.
The heaviest day of climbing and descending was a bit wet so I rode the Cannondale. What a difference. Pure, confidence inspiring with predictable and consistent braking, and the ability to brake as hard as I wanted/needed without worry.
