[url= http://www.crudproducts.com/products/roadracer ]spotted these on the crud site[/url] if they fit they could be good on my roadrat as the sks make the already fiddly job of rear wheel removal more fiddly!

Not seen those before. They do look rather good, maybe a replacement for the RaceBlades....!

Yes Turnerfan1, we trashed Jamie's front Ksyerium. That was a big piece of wood, and he was riding past me at 20mph as I shoved it in the front wheel, with the camera attatched to his handlebars. We tested the Roadracers really hard for months, riding in all the mud and gravel we could find, with 100% positive results.
It was a good wheel, but we got a primo set of sl ksyriums from 'fitforheroes' on ebay cheap to replace it.
Max tyre size is 25, but we have fitted them successfully to 32's on some bikes. Depends on yr bike.
Thanx singletrackers for all the enthusiasm...we have put in 8 months solid work on this one, and are really enjoying the response.

Look nice but it's a shame they don't go down to the chainstays. That's their failing. Front one looks good though.

Whats the knurled knob for?

Good idea for the race bike as previous 'race blades' are shite. I'll be keeping the trusty SKS chromoplastics on the winter bike though. If it aint broke..
