Review: Fox Union Boa - My New Favorite Shoes, Despite One Fatal Flaw
But if the boa dial tears off the shoe then you're SOL (had several pairs fail this way). Similarly, if your BOA fails on a trip, you're stuck buying another pair of shoes. If my laces fail, I can probably figure out a way to tie them together and be out $1.99 for a product sold everywhere.

First Ride: Specialized’s New DH Bike Has a Wild Drivetrain & a Lot to Prove
@uphillsg: I haven't, If it doesn't say Chris King on it, I don't bother. That said Loic has run 240s for a while. They're lighter and have a higher quality finish. Engagement/Failure rate is purely determined by which engagement rings you have in there and they're swappable assuming its the proper version.

Thing has DT 350 Hubs. Sad to see Specialized dumbing this build down for the poors.
