Almost $300 for a helmet with just basic mips is ridiculous. Especially in lieu of any extra fancy materials like Kask does with the leather on the chin straps(game changer for comfort). I’d probably steer people towards a Giro either Mips Spherical at that price point. Nevermind if you want to be safer you could get a Trek wavecel helmet for less.
Understand what you're saying. But I also think oddly fit is far too often thought as a second or third "feature", and the Uvex fits great. It's performance is way better than many lids I've tried this year, including the mental prices Kask Elemento. - Dave
@@n22pdf nearly as good as a CAAD 9 in my opinion. I still think that's the ultimate alloy road bike. The CAAD 10 got a bit too stiff, but made a awesome Crit bike.
used the Time pedals for a long time until i bought some power pedals several years ago....but still miss them. Likewise rudy project glasses - previous pair msut have kept going for close to a decade, replaced by Koo Demos, and lens already feel much worse..choices limited by need for prescription clip ins. nice to see some unknown brands in your review too. thanks

Nice CAAD10 dude I own to 😊 Pete
Came to say the same! Seeing that in the back makes his opinions way more trustworthy
There's a vid incoming about that bike....and a CAAD 9. Cheers
@@DavidEverettshoddycycling Awesome great bike the CAAD10.. look forward to it :)

@@DavidEverettshoddycycling have to say never road a 9 :)
Happy New Year, Shoddy, and thanks for the reviews. I especially appreciate the lower-priced options you presented. Thank you!
Happy new year! - Dave
Dave, get some galibier clothing in test, great and all sub £100 delivered uk/eu more or less.
On it I've reached out. I hear it's good stuff for the price. - Dave

I've surprised myself how much I liked the Time. They don't seem as well built as Shimano but do a great job -dave
