I'm not sure if this has been asked before - a quick search brought up a lot of mountain bike but few road bike threads... Which, in your opinions, are the nicest road bike brakes? Obviously Campagnolo Delta often get a mention, but they're heavy and functionally a bit weak. One of my customers has a pair of Monoplanars on his Cougar which are quite pretty. Does anything work as well as modern dual-pivot brakes?
