The official : "what have you bought today" topic

I've got the Strip 300 for the rear. Nioce and bright, when battery power is low, goes to a lower setting but still works well (2nd best featuere), but on higher power settings, doesn't last as long. I'm OK with that, as i got it on special at A$30

Nice! What hubs? Are the stickers/logls easily removeable? AFAIK in the clinchers they're lasered on.

WI T11, currently laced to Pacenti SL23 v2 rims.

These are decals that apparently would come off easily (but I am not planning to though).

Nice! And if I may ask, what width tubulars? (brand/model?)

[AndreLM]

Continental Gatorskins 25mm for now.

I am normally riding my Zipp 303 with Veloflex Arenbergs these days... the HED’s will stay mostly in my wife’s bike, so wanted some extra protection against punctures.

Finally. I've been wanting a pair of these for some time now. Ready to ride tomorrow (under 3 layers of toe/shoe covers).

How do the fit compared to similar size Sidi or Giro? Did you size down by 1/2 a size?

I've been using Gaerne Carbon G. Stilo shoes - size was the same, down to the measurement in cm. 26.5. Side by side the s-phyres look a bit shorter (not much) but they might be a bit wider.

I can also say they have the best venting of any shoe I've ever used. My toes were freezing on the first ride, even with toe covers and booties over them. I taped them shut for my ride today, much better.

The best part is I have issues w/ my right foot and while I had it taken care of pretty well w/ the gaerne shoes, these seem to be even better, I'm able to use less correction for my foot.

Wow really? I always thought Shimano ran larger than Sidi/Giro which I’m exactly 44.5 in, guess not for this model.
