I didn't take them because with the plastics they didn't gave me sufficient 'quality feel'. Moreover 'DiaCompe' hasn't the stature of Yo, Kooka and ....Grafton. My Yo will be getting a new brake sytem this christmas holiday. Finally I'll get rid of the V's. The new setup will be Grafton Johnny Jewels, Grafton FatFiner and I hope Grafton Re-Entry levers. So far it prooved to be difficult to get the levers on the powder coated TrueTemper bar and I do not wanna use much force, so maybe it will end up with 'only' XCPro levers... still nice of course.
I must say the Johnny Jewel brakes are VERY nicely made. They are a great piece of engineering, I would say even more interesting than the SpeedControllers. The levers are a joy for the senses too.
Now hoping they are up to the performance of 987s of course
