I had a few good UK rides with the race matrixes (in Formula The Ones), really pleased. Took them out to the alps, total unpredictable ****. Maybe it was just the heat but… I could deal with low power, or grabbiness, I couldn’t deal with not knowing from corner to corner whether they’d be grabby or feeble. Proper could-hurt-you stuff.
So I threw them in the bin and fitted some superstar kevlars, which never missed a beat. That’s not a plug for the superstars, other good pads are available, it just says that it was something specific to the Ubers not something I was doing.
