    Tektro stuff is okay lots of people rebrand them, condor, cane creek etc but pound for pound the campy stuff has worked out perfect for my SS, TT & tourer

    £25 a pair new from DHC cycles ebay store.

    Plus Campy skeleton calipers are possibly the sexist brakes known to man. Such a pity they aren't Shimano compatible. :(
