    Stroudie always seems to have sparks coming from somewhere outta turns, could be toe sliders though.

    Hey if I wanted to purchase the sparkies, do I just click the buy now on trade-me and just add the extra $10 for the sparkie version ?
    You could just tell me what colour option you wanted and I could set up another auction or just flick me a PM on here

    Stroudy has been running sparkies for years plus most modern suits have titanium elbow sliders

    Great to see these available locally. Looking forward to trying leather ones! Anyone else using leather?

    Used them since he made them, even helped develop them. Much prefer them to the plastic, more feel and feedback IMO.

    Sweet! The Wiz plastic lasts longer than any others i've tried, how does the leather last?

    If your into burrying your knee into the tarmac for as long and as hard as poss not long.
    However the leather works best for skimming the surface as a feeler but comes into its own when you need that extra push and bite.
    If all you have been used to is plastic they will take a little getting used to (you use them in a different way as mentioned) but the 'feel' you get is awesome.
    Plus they 'smoke' on the surface (look at the pic in my album) so are way cooler than plastic

    The only reason I'd need those is to let other track/road users that I have come adrift
