I use them in and around the mountains of Andalucia, worked fine coming down Sierra Nevada (2000m descent roughly) at high speeds. I think there's plenty of braking power there what with the Green swiss stops. Yellow Swiss stops in them on carbon rims are slightly lesser but nothing to freak about.

Is there actually any seat post left?!Its a nice bike and im a big fan of ISP's but its hard to argue with the ISP naysayers when you see stuff like this. Between what looks like a 80mm stem and the slammed mast topper id say the frame is more than a few sizes too big for you?

100mm Stem and whilst point taken on the mast topper, frame is definately right size for me.
