    I have a set from my pilot 1.2 which I keep meaning to sell too - i don't thin they are worth that much - certainly less than £100

    probably best bet is to take some good pictures and stick em on ebay - see what they go like!

    I didn't know you had changed your pilot (not been around here for a while - too depressed with injuries to look into sports I can't partake in at the moment)

    how is it?

    I think you are really asking Andy - but in case you are interested I changed my SSR's for a set of Shimano R561's (105 spec wheels) - they were a noticable upgrade.

    The are a fair bit lighter but most inportantly they don't flex and hit the brake blocks during "out of saddle" efforts like the SSRs did

    I think they looked better too
