I've just ordered a pair as it looked a good deal and wondering now whether they would be safe to use for everyday? Does anyone have any experience with them? From looking at the "your bikes" section they seem to be quite popular choice :D

    Possibly that you've made the decision to buy and then ask questions.

    To answer your question, I have two pairs and haven't had a problem with either. They are incredibly light and I might be wary of really pressing on the levers when doing them up, but's it's never been an issue. They're a good buy at the price.

    Agreed with Rob. Bought two sets about a year ago, never had a problem with them at all. Also agreed about the handle though, it's nothing I would worry too much about, but I do think about it every time I do them up (but really that's not often). They are great for the money though! Look great and very light.

    I have a pair of these as well and had no issues at all.

    They are seriously light but hold the wheels in place fine.

    Kinesis Aithein - Ultegra mechanical (7.3kg)
    Kinesis Maxlight Xc130 - xt/ xtr (11.3kg)


    spin to win!

    ahh, I always do that :oops: I just saw a deal and "click" and a moment after I've realized what I've actually done..

    Thanks for replies guys, good to read positive reviews :)

    Have 2 sets and change the wheels over at least once a week, no problems at all, v light and aesthetic.
