i dont dig em.

they might look better in the flesh but its not to my taste.

worst case scenario is that you resell them when they get here if you dont like them.

If you spend most of your time at the "front of the queue" then they would be fine. I don't know how many pigs you would spot though??

personally i hate the look of them and would never in a million years entertain the idea of putting them on anything!

Although, I do dig the look of the magical racing and also the lightech carbon mirrors!

They look shit (so no style points)
and dont work (so no substance)
one would have to ask WHY ??
Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD
