both are great, ive ridden with both, profiles feel stiffer and have less 'give' than primo's, from my experience

gonna leave the primos on it for now as they suit the fatter tubes, so the profiles can be sold now  :D

On a NG Holmes Id go with the Primos. All earlier models need profiles though.  :daumenhoch:
