Glad it’s not just me. Headed out for the first proper ride on them in damp conditions the other day and had a couple of twitchy pant-filling moments on some steep descents. Reckon I’ll rag them to pieces over the summer and then switch out to something different. I’ve got some beat up 700c wheels I’ll be using for winter duties anyway, and the pair of byways cost me less than £30 as they were on offer. Maybe slightly clearer why they were on offer now.
No, Wiggle. Looks like everyone has been trying to shift their stock! Seemed particularly slippery on damp tarmac, which is a fun thing to discover when you’re braking hard on one of Sheffield’s steepest descents.
