Can anyone confirm they work for wide rims, like Zipp and Hed? Thanks.

They are dual pivot and have always been. One pivot is the mount bolt and the other is the wheel on the end of the cam arm

I received a set last night. They're not actually dual pivot. Both caliper arms pivot around a single bolt, versus having a second pivot bolt for one of the arms. The cam arm changes the leverage as the calipers close.

On my scale, one brake w/pads and hardware weighs 105g, versus 135g for a 2011 SRAM Red w/pads and hardware.
