Can't wait to see it with the new Boras. Use Vitorria Mastik One. Forget the conti cement for Carbon. Apparently really nasty smelling and although I've never used it, I've talked to people who have and they didn't like it so much, at least not compared to mastic one. Also, which Veloflex tires are you waiting on? I am experimenting with Arrenberg 25's on my Boras and the C59 right now and really like them. They are the absolute max size tire that will fit in the C59 fork however. Even then, in hard efforts I can hear a slight rub now and then, which is separate from road grime getting thrown through there if you run over some sticky tarmac for example, or typical of wet weather riding. With the 25's, there's only about one mm max of clearance between tire and fork crown when mounted. I can live with that.
