"I ordered the 16's and find the fit extremely tight. So much so as to almost fail to unclip when stopping. Also as the fit is so tight my cleats don't have any float. I had sent my last pair back for refund as they were faulty. I'm thinking about doing the same with these but i'll keep them on for a bit and hope they loosen up."
Pros: Attractive
Cons: Poor Fit, Unadjustable

"British engineering at its best. Not great dollars for grams as they are much heavier than Ti and as dear as Ti but these skewers are a work of art and have a solid, confident closure.
Highly recommended"

"Front shifting is so good i change gear just to show off my new cranks.
Not to mention how smooth they run or how easy they are to fit. I couldn't be happier with my latest purchase from wiggle."

I've currently got a 105 crankset that needs replacing. What else would I need to change if I buy this?
