Hi all, has anyone heard of m5 road brakes made in middleburg? I scored a set off co and want to get your feedback if I should keep them and spend the money 're anodizing them? Thanks in advance.

Have you got photos of how they currently look? What colour would you reanodize them to?

M5 brakes are very powerful, I really liked them, also for the esthetics.
Only reason why I don't have them on the bike anymore is that they aren't made for wide rims.
You can make it work by using different, low profile, brake pad holders though.
