Ive logged 600 to over 1,400 miles per month every month and every mile with my BBXs and those same blue Comply S-500 tips from June, 2013. It?s a definite step-up from plastic or part-plastic racks since those pieces do not click together like this does. Since the first Blackwell Ghost, I?ve been so excited to see further investigations (yes, I know they?re fake), and was SO ready to watch the newest installment. I ordered them in gray, and they compliment several outfits. They said they would refund the money - but I would have to pay for the tracked postage / return from the UK to Italy - which would be roughly half the cost of the sandals. Its not a bad bike for the money, but very disappointed that once we got it all put together, and tried it out, the computer is completely dead. It was the most expensive mouse I?ve ever purchased, but I really loved the look, and hoped for great experience. I had a Apple iPad charger I used for fast charging and regular individual apple USB adapters for the rest of my devices. Didnt bother taking the wire apart. This boot did not work for me at all.
