Yeah I have to agree, I've ridden Roval, ENVEs, multiple generations of Zipps, Curve, Reynolds, Corrima and DT wheels.. These are much nicer than any of them with the stock shimano pads. I'd love a pair of C40s to go with them at some stage.

Is the brake surface still carbon just treated in a special way?
I'll definitely look at these wheels after I kill my brake tracks on current tubulars.

Love this color.
Wouldn't a 0-offset post work better for you?

A lot of really nice bikes on this thread. I just completed a build on a new 2016 Sworks Disc brake SL5 and put up a thread about it. Not a lot of SL5 disc Tarmac's out there I found only one going back thorugh this thread and he really only posted a pic of it. Probably why you can find the framesets new on Ebay pretty cheap lol!

If the only upgrade is th einternal cable routing and maybe some aero tweaks, I do not believe we need it.

The picture was actually taken in early April, but this has been on my desktop ever since i took the picture. That's why i want to share it with you guys!
It was taken somewhere in the hills close to Finale Ligure in Italy, it was on my first proper ride back after a crash. I was hardly able to hold the the bars, but I enjoyed every second.

Since then I have upgraded to a p2m NGeco.

Not a WW anymore (up to 6.5kg from 5.7kg) but love it even more. Taken towards the end of a 10k ft climb day last week.
