Tektro OEM only brakes - is there any way of getting these?

I'd quite like to get my hands on these:

http://www.tektro.com/_english/01_produ ... rt=2&fid=4

The problem is they're OEM only.

I want to replace / upgrade the standard Bontrager ones on my Trek Madone, the dura ace direct mount is the obvious choice but I've got Campag so I would rather not.

Any ideas how I could source these, I've emailed Tektro who haven't replied. Is there a UK distributor who may have some samples / small stash they would sell?

Thanks Matt

    Are they not the same as these?

    Sadly these are the conventional single bolt mount. I need direct mount which has 2 bolts. One on either side.

    The TRP 920/922 are direct mount. You can also get Ultegra or Dura Ace direct mount brakes (6810/9010).

    I'll look into the TRPs, the guys at TRP aren't sure they fit my Madone. I'm slightly loathed to put shimano brakes with my Campag groupset!

    Because it will be a slippery slope towards upgrading the whole groupset?

    I've got super record eps. So I doubt it.

    I'll let you slide seeing as you only have a second class gruppo...
