Got mine installed, and went on a 104km cruise to test them out.
I would have to caution ppl not to attach them too tight. I cracked the plastic a tiny bit, but was able to glue and support within the wrap. Feels super safe and comfy.
Also, I have carbon bars, so to protect against having a pressure point of the screw digging into the carbon, I cut out a square pieces of leather from an old belt i had, and placed the squared between the screw and the bar (you'll see a square gap).
The only bad part about these are the comments on reddit, and FB fixed gear groups by roadies that pretend to understand what riding a track bike is like.
