Token TK-BR7230 Accura brake calipers review
If anything the brakes felt a little too solid at the lever, lacking a bit of modulation. Cable clamping is a smidgen fiddlier than your average Shimano/SRAM/Campag, but there's plenty of adjustment, so it should only be a one-time hassle, and they're worth it if you want to save significant grammage.

That was indeed the dilemma facing many of the early CNC'd lightweight cam caliper designs. No longer is that the case.
