They're all sub-11 guys competing at a reasonably high level - British nats, Euro champs, so I doubt they'd use gear of ambiguous efficacy.
Thanks!

BTW, SRAM Omnium are undoubtley stiffer than Dura Ace AND a lot less expensive to boot, yet they didn't take over at the higher levels. Stiffer doesn't mean better.

Maybe a better question is: If something were to go wrong, what would be the issue?
