Took this out for a few rides over the weekend. Rides beautifully. First time using hydro brakes and they are bloody excellent. Using them, combined with the 32mm hypers, to cruise down a 2km single lane descent, averaging at 10% with gravel and broken tarmac pretty confidently.
Going to get a bike fit with Garry Kirk who really seems to know his stuff. He has recommended speedplay setup with midcleat soles, so will see about that.
