Strengths: Power, smooth, looks, very lightweight.Weaknesses: None I can findBottom Line: These brakes simply work excellently. Smooth, firm, no hassle. I have trouble imagining a better brake. You get a very light caliper without sacrificing any performance.

Strengths: Power, modulation, looks and set up.Weaknesses: None yet.Bottom Line: These brakes kick a$$! They look beautiful (the red anodized on my black Tarmac SL2 looks great) and setup easily. The stopping power is better, in my opinion, than the Force brakes I replaced, and the Dura Ace 7900, on which I've spent some time. Modulation is excellent, as well. The included SwissStop pads are great, too. I strongly recommend these brakes. They are worth every penny.

Strengths: Light, good stopping power, easy setupWeaknesses: price?, aluminum fixing nuts, calipers could open further to remove the wheelBottom Line: Replacement for Ultegra calipers, which are definitely heavier (dont know how much). No drama during installation. Bolted these on, set the brake pads to the rim, and off I went. No setup problems. I didnt use the aluminum fixing nuts, but stayed with steel ones. Good stopping power, probably due to the Swiss stop pads. Dont feel any flex in the brakes. They have a firm, positive feel, with good stopping power. Havent ridden in the wet yet. The calipers dont open as wide as the Ultegra calpers for removing the wheel, I can get the wheel out or in with a firm tug.
