Long term review? Granted mold tooling is expensive, and made in USA, but that's a steep charge. Looks good, anyway.

Any grippy offering is in the same ballpark as far as price. Diety and chromag I believe start at 150$ to 185$ depending on model . The pins on the tectonic seem to be indestructible, I have yet bend or wear one even after some nasty rock strikes . After many months of use I liked em so much I needed on my other bike .

I'd think it helps, if anything - the point of MIPS is to give some rotational slack in a crash. MIPS slides against bandana, bandana slides against head, more rotational slack in the whole system. But I'm not a neurologist, so take that with a grain of salt.
I've been trying to buy these for a week with best offer on Ebay.
Finally found the sold number.
We Are One Faction wheels set.
29 carbon
Industry 9 1/1
Microspline
Now I just need some 6 bolt rotors.

If you're interested, I have a pair of take-off Shimano SLX 180mm 6-bolt that came of my Pivot T429. Had a few rides before I swapped to XT rotors.
I'm going to check my inventory. I think I need 180f/160r
No. No you don't.
You need 180f/180r
If anything you need an adapter to run 180 on the rear.
You're welcome. 🙂

can you use crank boots with them? looks like they are pretty thick right next to the crank. That type of pedal interferes with the crank boot with some pedals. They look like really good pedals, i'd like to give them a shot.
Maybe if I was racing Enduro.
I'm quite pleased with the way my bike slows down.
Prob not without some pedal spacers . Not an issue for me as I'm running only aluminum cranks in short length
Worldwide Cyclery paid me $50 to write a review a couple weeks back so I put it to nice utilitarian use.
Never got a DH for the Element and the coil I've been running on the Ripmo is just a touch soft.

Lost my AXS battery cover at Nassau...
Pm sent. Occam is 180/180

Relevant to the conversation....
Kask puts MIPS on notice with new WG11 rotational impact test - CyclingTips
Testing with more human-like headforms that account for hair and scalp suggests standalone features like MIPS might not be necessary.

Wow surprised they had it in stock so quick.
Then again with all these issues they must have had to keep a secret stockpile

Not really. Warranty department keeps different stock from general stock. When they're out of something, they typically replace it with the next tier up.
