Looks nice but it's alot of money for just some bling. Maybe in the future I'll give in

Mick, does it have to be run with the ally side pods ? I guess maybe if the plastic ones were used it would have too much flex and a chance the shafts may fall out ? Any one tried ?

Yep,

You'd really need to be running the alloy side pods. There would be too much flex with the carbon and the plastic side pods.

Default carbon chassis

I hope to do a back to back soon. Carbon chassis and brace with alloy pods v alloy chassis plastic pods and brace. Then swap the pods around and see.
Problem is i am busy for the next few weekends so will do asap.
