So.. if it's raining and your brake track is wet, and you try to stop with those Deltas does it barely slow you down at all? Great looking bike. A little too nice for a rain bike in my opinion though... haha

In the rain, I try not the ride too fast or lean into corners. :)

Rad, I like that it's super practical and you havn't stripped it down for the photos. What does it weigh built up like this?
How do you find the Deltas day to day?

It's a bear right now with the Deltas on, They are damn pretty as hell though. They encompass Campagnolo's 1980's C-Record philosophy of style over substance. The braking performance is average, it stops the bike safely. They are no modern dual pivots though.

Thought that might be the case, my buddys got some on an old Pina, bit dodgey on the hills!
