Custom brakes itself in general have been more widely introduced in 93-94, levers roughly a year later, and than also most custom cable hanger like Ringle Mojo etc. in 95 or even 96.
The Onza chill pills may have been launched most likely together with the HO cantilever brakes, those have been introduced Mid 1996.
As V-Brakes came only shortly after this, all those nice parts had a short peak before back in time the buyers all had been looking for "upgrading"
to V-Brakes.

I thought the HO brakes were earlier than '96? mombat has them down in '94.
They are in the catalogue in the archive but no date on it, maybe @FluffyChicken knows the catalogue date?

Mombat has no HO brakes, at least not on the Onza overview
But still you're right, the mid 96 date I was referring to was related to this article in the German Bike magazine.
Just it's not the introduction, but already a summary after almost a year of test.
I found now also the BMX plus magazin from 9 1995, introducing the "new" High Output brakes
That means that the H.O. Brakes had been launched in Mid/End 1995, maybe also the Chill Pill cable hanger.
Just from their timeline, here

The bmx ad would suggest around '94 also.
