Also, can you flip the bike clamp 90 degrees? I clamp mine on the seat post. Clamping the top tube feels wrong to me.

Probably true Jesmol. Didn't want to risk. I actually felt the front end actually more harsh, largely because the thing was sooo light and stiff, there wasn't much compliance at all.Jesmol wrote:I was told that the ISP version is more compliant , and the normal sp version can be a bit harshShpox wrote:The one I test rode was mech Dura Ace with normal SP. Actual one for sale though had an ISP, so would have to be cut and stuff.Jesmol wrote:Noice, just out of curiosity,was the TCR an ISP version, or did it have a normal seatpost.
Drizt, are you running fouriers or the 2016 brakes?
I could flip the clamp ha, but it's pretty dicey with shapes going on.
