    Ideal then, as they're light, fancy and come in red. Mine weigh 42 grams for the pair and they have a lovely action, very smooth.

    I'd buy some. In fact, I did.

    They are OK. They are light and good value for pound/weight and look good. I've got the black ones.

    However they are not as secure as traditional (read: Campag, Shimano) skewers. Even done up tight it's possible to rotate the skewer to tighten some more.

    I've decided to change back.
