Yeh we do all have a weakness but they just had to be bought ;-)
I've had my eye on them for ages cos I wanted to stay away from the TT pedals as everyone's got them, just hope they look as good as I hope :-)

Potenza's are great tyres :) not amazing in the wet but very good for most conditions

Expensive though, a good cheaper option is the Yokohama Prada Spec 2's, they look amazing too!
