They are the perfect solution if you are riding out and back to a CX race. Otherwise yea.
Tidy build Ho.

Really nice. Are you ideologically/physiologically wed to speedplay? LOOK pedals would be nice.

It's more for mountainbiking where with normal cages you end your rides without bidons

Ah, didn't know that! Yeah for roadie use I didn't really see the point, but i can understand it for MTB's.

Beautiful! where are the brakes..? - inside the forks?

Cheers all, just a few tweaks on this bike tbh to make it perfect.
The following changes will be made in the short term:
- Narrower and stiffer handlebars, they are way too flexy on the lateral and vertical load.
- Bottle cages
- revert back to double sided speedplay
- Switch to Black Prince brake pads - the LB ones are nice but useless in the rain.
Long term change gear set to DA 9250.
- Narrower and stiffer handlebars, they are way too flexy on the lateral and vertical load.

These one are a little annoying.
Prefer these for double sided mount but also the amount of float you can get on these pedals too.

Underside of BB and integrated in the front fork.

Fair enough, in our advancing years comfort and utility come above all.

Now where is the fun in that?

Probably not as bad as the front chainrings tbh. They're awful.

Some would beg to differ.

So annoyingly the steerer is ruined and need of a replacement fork.
Can recommend one or maybe know of a skilled carbon repair would take on the job? Carbon Surrey repair said no already.

might be worth calling HQ Fibre Products in Norwich. They've repaired some rims for me over the years and have always been brilliant.
Looks great, really tidy when it's all put together. I agree with the anti-fidlock sentiment, they always struck me as a solution looking for a problem.
